In an age where much of the Bible is frequently proclaimed to be
irrelevant, perhaps it is the prophets of the Old Testament who are
the least regarded of all. What significance could these obscure
historical figures from a small nation -- at best, examples of
moral uprightness and devotion -- have for us today? Emil Bock
argues that they are, in fact, hugely relevant. He shows that it
was among the Israelite-Jewish people of the last pre-Christian
millennium that the true pulse of the spirit of the age was
beating. For that period, they were the brightly-illuminated centre
of world history, a focus for all the life and endeavours of
humankind. He paints a picture of the Old Testament prophets as
being guided from above by the spirit of Christ, preparing the way
for his human incarnation. In a parallel analogy, he also shows how
the prophets help prepare our own souls to meet Christ.
