As opposed to the Minor Prophets

When you think about the major prophets, these are the powerhouses of prophetic literature in the Bible—and they aren’t just “major” by title! Their words pack a punch and address significant events and issues facing the Israelites during tumultuous times. Take Isaiah, for example. He was known for his poetic language and visions about hope, redemption, and even the coming of a great leader, often thought to foreshadow the arrival of the Messiah.

Then there’s Jeremiah, often referred to as the “weeping prophet.” His heartbroken lamentations over the sins of his people make him relatable—the sort of figure who would definitely put a metaphorical arm around your shoulder during tough times. Not to forget Ezekiel! This guy had some seriously wild visions, including a valley of dry bones coming back to life. Talk about life lessons!

And who can overlook Daniel, famed for his courage and commitment to his principles in the fiery furnace and the lion's den? His adventures show steadfast faith in the face of oppression and danger, resonating throughout centuries as a testament of faith in adversity.

If you're curious about the distinction between major and minor prophets, the size of the book is what makes the difference—not the importance of the prophets themselves. The minor prophets have goodies too, like Hosea and Jonah. Together, they weave a rich tapestry of lessons concerning love, justice, and divine compassion.
