The remnant of Israel, throughout the Bible, is the group who has never bowed their knee to Baal. This just means they have never worshipped false gods. They have always remained faithful to God. These are those people who are holy, because He is holy. They are not interested in sin. They are interested in pleasing God.

They have all the good habits of Christ, because Christ lives in them. These are speaking of those who have made Christ their Lord.

1 John 3:9 "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."

Zephaniah 3

Verses 14-20: The messianic era of millennial blessing and restoration is described.

The ten tribes, as Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it; which shall now return and all Israel shall be saved (Rom. 11:26) and therefore just cause of shouting, and of keeping a jubilee on that account.

Just as God tells us at the end of gog magog war - NOW All Israelis will return. Ezekiel 39:21

Zephaniah 3:14 “Sing, ...shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O child of Jerusalem."

"Sing, ....": The congregation of Israel, as the Targum; the church of Christ in Gospel times, which has great reason to sing and rejoice, because of the coming of Christ, redemption by him, and all other benefits and blessings of grace.

Because of the Gospel, and the ordinances of it, and the numbers of souls converted, both among Jews and Gentiles; especially the church in the latter day is here called upon to sing for joy, when the Jews will be converted; to which these words and what follow relate.....

Verses 15-17: The basis for rejoicing in verse 14 is that Israel’s day of judgment is past and her King is residing in her midst. His departure just prior to Nebuchadnezzar’s destruction of the temple is graphically depicted in Ezek. 8 – 11; but He will return as Lord and Messiah, a fact so glorious that it is repeated in verse 17.

Zephaniah 3:15 "The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, [even] the LORD, [is] in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63945462


"Thou shalt not see evil any more": The evil of affliction or punishment; the evil of captivity, disgrace, and contempt. This shows that this prophecy does not respect the Babylonish captivity, and deliverance from that. For, since that time, they have seen evil by Antiochus Epiphanies, in the times of the Maccabees; and by the Romans.

And have had a large and long experience of it; but when they are converted, and returned to their own land in the latter day, all their afflictions and troubles will be at an end, they will know them no more. The Vulgate Latin version renders it, "thou shalt not fear evil any more". So the Targum, "thou shalt not be afraid from before evil any more.

The following Scripture is about the very same thing.

Hebrews 8:12 "For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more."

They are forgiven and restored.

Revelation 12:10 "And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night."
