Spine title: Introduction, Old Testament prophetic books.
Part One: The Prophets of the Neo-Assyrian Period -- Jonah: preface to the prophets -- Amos: call for moral obedience -- Hosea: a prophet's dilemma -- Micah: Judgment, hope, and promise -- Isaiah: prophet par excellence. Part Three: The Prophets of the Persian Period -- Daniel: witness in Babylonia -- Haggai: the temple and the future -- Zechariah: prophet of the new kingdom -- Joel: the day of decision -- Malachi: prophet of covenant love. Part Two: The Prophets of the Neo-Babylonian Period -- Zephaniah: profile of a people -- Habakkuk: prophet of transition -- Jeremiah: prophet to the nation -- Nahum: the reality of judgment -- Ezekiel: the merging of two spheres -- Obadiah: Edom's day of the Lord -- Lamentations: reflections of the soul.
The Old Testament prophets spoke to Israel in times of historical and moral crisis. They saw themselves as being a part of a story that God was weaving throughout history--a story of repentance, encouragement, and a coming Messiah. In this updated introductory book, each major and minor prophet and his writing are clustered with the major historical events of their time. Our generational distance from the age of the prophets might seem to be a measureless chasm. Yet we dare not make the mistake of assuming that passing years have rendered irrelevant not only the Old Testament prophets, but also the God who comprehends, spans, and transcends all time. In these pages, C. Hassell Bullock presents a clear picture of some of history's most profound spokesmen--the Old Testament prophets--and the God who shaped them. https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Old-Testament-Prophetic-Books-ebook/dp/B00L1U7N30/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=9780802441423&qid=1590081791&sr=8-1
