Minor Prophets with Major Messages

The 12 minor prophets were raised up as mouthpieces of God to continually call the 10 northern tribes-Israel, and the 2 southern tribes-Judah, back to a sincere faith in Him. Up until these prophets, the former prophets like Elijah and Elisha, as well as the more ‘minor’ ones like Hanani and his son Jehu, were all prophets who ministered, but did not write books on a scroll in the O.T. The messages of the 12 minor prophets were “minor” only in the length of their messages
