Lectures Introductory to the Study of the Minor Prophets

by William Kelly

Publisher:

, 1874

Overview

The twelve short books at at the end of the Old Testament in English Bibles are known as the Minor Prophets. This is not a claim about importance, but rather only size. Several provide little in terms of the historical context in which they were written. While others provide an explicit historical context, such as Zephaniah, dated to the final days of the Kingdom of Judah before its destroyed by Babylon in 586 BC. The lectures that William Kelly presents here provide essential background for understanding the purpose and context of each of the twelve Minor Prophets.
