These six prophets proclaim powerful messages about judgment and
the sovereignty of God. Amos challenges hypocrisy and injustice.
Hosea's marriage symbolizes the covenant between God and Israel,
moving from love to separation and then reunion. Micah, Nahum, and
Zephaniah condemn corrupt leadership, injustice to the poor, and
worship of false gods. Habakkuk reminds all to rely on God, who
will punish the evil and defeat chaos. Flowing through all these
calls to be a better people is the unfailing promise of a faithful
and forgiving God.
