and I think this is one of the key lessons and messages of this beautiful book. As this book comes to a close at the end of chapter three, nothing has changed on the outside. The people of Judah, they've still forgotten God. Violence still reigns in Jerusalem. The wicked still oppress the righteous. The wicked still, still oppress the righteous, and the Babylonians are still God's appointed instrument for judgment. Hard times are coming, and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Nothing has changed except for this. Habakkuk has changed. He finally came to the realization that God is in control.
