MINOR PROPHETS
This name, in contrast to the so-called major prophets, is given to the shorter writings of the following twelve prophets: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi.
Despite their name and, in certain cases, very short length, they give valuable teachings, and deserve careful examination, both for the light they directly shed on God’s plans, and for the principles and applications in the walk of the believer at all times and places.
