The Minor Prophets

In which we learn the bright side of marrying a whore, God punches many things, and the wicked are set on fire.

The Minor Prophets are sort of like the Bible’s AM radio dial. They were constantly railing against the government and complaining about how the nation had lost its moral compass. These prophets were uniquely blessed with the ability to see everything wrong about everyone else. The Minor Prophets basically existed to give Israel poor body image.

In their defense, they lived during anxious times. The Minor Prophets wrote after Israel had been split into two kingdoms: Israel and Judah. Some of the books were written just before the two kingdoms were conquered, respectively, by Assyria and Babylon. Some were written after they were conquered, while the Jews were forced to live in captivity. Others were written after the Jews were allowed to return to Israel. Regardless of when they were written, the Minor Prophets had one consistent theme: something is about to go horribly wrong, and it’s all your fault.
