The focus of this book is the major and minor prophets of the Old Testament. Author C. Haskell Bullock has chosen to follow a historical line of study through literary prophets, instead of the usual canonical order. Study the prophets of the Neo-Assyrian period, whose attention focused on the circumstances and results of the fall of the Northern Kingdom (Israel) in 722 B.C.; those of the Neo-Babylonian period, who focused on the fall of the Southern Kingdom (Judah) in 586 B.C.; and the prohets of the Persian period and the Jewish return to Israel after exile. Get a clear picture of Israel's history, as well as sharper understanding of Old Testament prophets and prophetic literature.
