What does Zephaniah 2:6-7 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

The flat Philistine seacoast would become depopulated pastures, and its caves-there are many in Judah and Mt. Carmel-would serve as refuges for shepherds and folds for sheep. After this destruction, the survivors from Judah would take possession of the coastal plain and pasture their sheep there. They would also take over the houses in Ashkelon and make them their homes because Yahweh would care for this remnant and restore their fortunes (cf. Zephaniah 3:20; Genesis 15:18-20).
