A Prophetic Revolution in One Hour - Collected Talks of David Solomon #71
A Jewish history and biblical history lecture
In the first millennia BCE, the prophets of Israel launched an unprecedented spiritual revolution, the impact of which has resonated throughout the ages and across the world. In this fascinating lecture, David presents an overview of the twelve 'minor' prophets of Israel. Although their messages contained profound insight, analysis, and inspiration, these prophets are known in English as 'minor' because their books are short compared to those of the 'major' prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. With lightning speed and characteristic clarity, David takes us through the story of these prophets and reminds us of the remarkable relevance of their words for us today.
In this podcast episode, David examines the life and ideas of the following prophets:
Hosea
Joel (Yoel)
Amos
Obadiah (Ovadiah)
Jonah (Yonah)
Micah
Nachum
Habakkuk
Zephaniah
Haggai
Zechariah
Malachi
He places these prophets in their historical context, looking at the following:
- life in the northern Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judea (Judah)
- the destruction of the northern kingdom by the Assyrians
- the assault on Jerusalem by the Assyrians
- the defeat of the Assyrians by the Persians
- the Babylonian exile
- the return to Zion and the rebuilding of Jerusalem under the proclamation of Cyrus
- the beginning of the Second Temple Period.
