God's Word: Prophecy by ric gustafson
In the New Testament, Jesus is the fulfillment of the prophecy. There are many messianic predictions including Isaiah 9: 2-7. One of the Dead Sea scrolls was on the prophet Habakkuk. The major books of the prophets included Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel. The minor prophets included Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi. The prophets did not write long books. They wrote oracles in paragraph form. The book of Isaiah spans the most time. The books of prophecy are subversive entities. Even through prophecy sometimes spoke of disaster, oracles of hope come through. The books of prophecy are a witness to being parts of Scripture. The books of prophecy are part of God's Word.
