Bible Overview: February 05, 2023
Pastor Steve continued with our Bible Overview series. We finished up with the last two major prophets from the previous Sunday, Ezekiel and Daniel, before starting with the minor prophets. Three keys in the Old Testament to understand the prophet is (1) know the prophet, the messenger (2) know the people the prophet speaks to, (3) know the history or the sin.
There are 12 minor prophets, 9 before exile and 3 after exile. These 12 are divided into two sections, corporate blessings of life, health, prosperity, agriculture, abundance, respect and safety. The second is corporate punishment of death, disease, drought, dearth, danger, destruction, defeat, deportation, destitution and disgrace.
Pre-exile prophets were Hosea, Amos, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Zephaniah, Habakkuk, Joel and Obadiah. Post-exile prophets were Haggai, Zachariah and Malachi.
