New commentary on three Old Testament prophetic books.¿
Obadiah's oracle against Edom. Jonah's mission to the city of Nineveh. Micah's message to Samaria and Jerusalem. These books are short yet surprisingly rich in theological and practical terms. In his commentary on these minor but important prophets, Daniel Timmer considers each book's historical setting, genre, structure and unity. He explores their key themes with an eye to their fulfilment in the New Testament, and their significance for today.
