Description

Many Christians shy away from reading the Minor Prophets because they fear they are too difficult to understand. In Judah Amongst the Empires, Daniel C. Timmer helps today’s Christians understand how the Minor Prophets present God’s relationship with His chosen people. Through introductions, commentary, and Christological connections, readers will learn to love these glorious books. Includes material on Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah.

Endorsements:

“The Minor Prophets have been unfortunately named since there is nothing ‘minor’ about them. Like Isaiah and Jeremiah and Ezekiel, they treat the same grand themes of sin, judgment, and salvation, all against a covenantal backdrop. Yet they are too often neglected. Among them, perhaps Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah are some of the most neglected. Enter Daniel Timmer’s delightful short work, Judah among the Empires, which does a great job of retrieving these prophets and their messages for the modern church. Ideal for preachers and home group leaders.”

Excellent Resource

Posted by Earl Adams on 5th May 2023

Very pleased to obtain this valuable resource on three of the minor prophets, which are not minor in content but only is size of their book. This is a treasure.
