"Ancient Voices"

Available Now from Zephoniel

Ancient Voices by Zephoniel is a Symphonic Journey Through the Lives of God's Prophets is a 21-track odyssey through Scripture, where each song gives voice to a prophet's calling, struggle, and revelation. From Enoch before the flood to Isaiah's throne room vision, Jeremiah's fire, Daniel's courage, and the cries of the Minor Prophets, their stories rise in music both thunderous and mournful. The journey culminates with John the Baptist preparing the way, and John at Patmos unveiling the final Revelation. Blending symphonic depth with prophetic metal intensity, the album is both a tribute and a summons — reminding us that the words of God's messengers still burn with urgency for our own time.

Hebrews 1:1 (KJV) — "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets." 2 Peter 1:21 (KJV) — "For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."
