The reference to "Habakkuk the prophet" marks a transition. The argumentative tone of the previous chapters, in which he cried for divine interference, is transformed into a plea for God's mercy, a review of God's power, and a chorus of praise for God's sustaining grace and sufficiency. But while the tone changes, a strong, thematic connection remains. Having been informed of God's plan of judgement, Habakkuk returns to the matter of Judah's judgement, pleading for mercy.
