I love the suggestion in the Introduction that "the Bible was not written for texts", but for solutions to the turmoil of life. Citing Hosea, "It is love that I delight in and not sacrifice; and knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings". How splendid!
This book looks at the Prophets and wonders who they were, what they did, what they really thought, and why. Approach these names with questions: Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah, Zephaniah, Nahum, Jeremiah, Habakkuk, Ezekiel, Ezra, Haggai, Zechariah, Obadiah, Malachi, Joel, Jonah, Daniel. Knopf adds rich "historical" background to the narrative, and provides plausible insights for the facts he shares. For example, the children in Isaiah's family were given symbolic names--"Remnant", "Booty, and "Prey". [52] Is this not a warning to Judah, as Sargon rises up out of Assyria?
