The Lives of the Holy Prophets

Part of our Sacred Scriptures Series

The Lives of the Holy Prophets In our new collection we discuss the sixteen writing Prophets of the Old Testament, that is all the Major and Minor Prophets, including: Abbakoum, Amos, Daniel, Ezekiel, Haggai, Hosea, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Joel, Jonah, Malachi, Micah, Nahum, Obadiah, Zachariah, Zephaniah, together with Elias, Baruch, and the Three Children.

In one convenient volume the reader shall find intimate portraits of the lives and times of these Prophets and their sayings. We shall examine their books within the framework of sacred Scriptures, Holy Tradition, Patristics, together with the sacred Hymnography and Iconographic Traditions of the Holy Orthodox Church. We have furnished a wide range of the holy Fathers' allegorical, mystical and moralizing interpretations. This volume may be used both as a missionary tool and private study for the education and motivation of everyone. This insightful book is ideal for both those newly learning about the Faith and long-time believers aspiring to the truths of Bible prophecy. The wealth of information and succinct knowledge would be hard to equal in any other one-volume format. It shall prove a valuable source for reference and sermon material based on sound research. This book can give the reader a Bible study framework that yields the optimum result, a deeper relationship with God and reinforced faith that Jesus is the Christ and preparation for prophecies yet to be fulfilled.

Useful bibliographies and indexes of theological subjects, and key people and dates make this reference tool indispensable. Full Bible names and cites are given as they appear in the Septuagint and King James Version.

Our new 6x9 case-bound book is handsomely bound in hunter green lexotone with gold stamping. The volume contains 704 Smyth-sewn, acid-free pages and is fully illustrated with 55 icons.
