THE MINOR PROPHETS
OT/NT: Old Testament
SECTION: Minor Prophets (12 books)
BOOKS: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi.
SUMMARY: Canonically, the 12 books of the Minor Prophets (1) are the 28th through the 39th books of the Holy Bible (2) and the last section of the Old Testament (3).
The 12 books of the Minor Prophets are not named so because they are less important than the 5 books of the Major Prophets (4). The categorization of "Major" and "Minor" is due only to the size of the respective books. Hence, the 17 collective books are not canonically placed due to importance, but are arranged from largest to smallest.
COMING UP: Next up is the book of Hosea (5). Click HERE to explore!
