Book Description
How will we fathom the three great books of prophecies, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel? These three books are the first section of the later prophets. Isaiah is filled with songs to be sung. Imagine the original melodies of the song for the vineyard, or the thrice repeated Holy of the Cherubim, and the musical shape of the Servant Songs. Imagine Jeremiah meditating on the first chapter of Genesis as he laments the destruction of the temple and the exile of the people. Imagine his sadness expressed in the music embedded in the text itself, and hear the music from Genesis 1 as a counterpoint. Hear the chanting of Ezekiel, from the likeness of the four living creatures, to the vision of the temple, to the name of the city. Imagine comparing the music of the first dwelling specified in Exodus to that of the last, revealed in Ezekiel. The Major Prophets is volume 3 of the series, The Hebrew Bible and Its Music.

It makes digging into the Major Prophets even easier! What's the Difference Between the Major Prophets and Minor Prophets? Are the major prophets more important than the minor prophets? That's a common question asked and the answer is clear: not at a all. The division between Major and Minor Prophets is very old and was based strictly on the length of the books. Since biblical books were written on scrolls, they had a size limit. Because the writings of all twelve Minor Prophets fi t well on one scroll, they became one unit. Apart from being shorter, the Minor Prophets are the same type of prophetic literature as the Major Prophets. 5 Main Reasons Why You (and your small group) Should Study the Major Prophets: Why should Christians today read, study, and be concerned with the message of each of these books? They anticipate the coming of the Messiah, who has saved us from evil, made a new relationship possible between God and us, and given us a new heart. They call God's people to trust in God's care and provision and remind us that he is able and willing to come through for us. They call God's people to repent from ignoring, challenging, and disobeying God. Their words and actions instruct us about the ways in which God deals with his people. By seeing the world from God's perspective and understanding the ways in which God deals with his people, we become better equipped to discern our times and understand God's will for the church today. Discussion/Reflection Questions for the Major Prophets Pamphlet Read Pgs. 1-2 (Importance of the Major Prophets). Many believers are intimidated by the idea of reading the Major Prophets.
