Synopsis

The writings of the minor prophets in the Old Testament of the Bible are a remarkable witness of God's dealings with people in the ancient world. His relationship with Israel and Judah-especially their idolatry, moral deterioration, and subsequent punishment-is recorded factually, poetically, and often emotionally. God repeatedly pleaded through His prophets for their repentance and reform. He also held the surrounding nations accountable for having influenced His people to follow their patron gods and cultic practices.

Not only did God plead for His people to return to Him, but often so did the prophets themselves. These men were not uninterested observers but passionate loyalists to God and His covenant. Their voices often mingled with God's own in detailing where Israel and Judah went wrong and how things could be rectified. Despite the typically dark tone of their writings, the prophets foresaw rays of restoration and a glorious future for God's people in a spiritual kingdom governed by a transcendent Messiah.

A Study of the Minor Prophets gives important attention to these prophets, their writings, and their subject matter. It provides historical context, biographical detail, and essential exposition on these twelve books of the Bible. Each book's coverage is followed with questions that enhance reflection and further thought on the material.
