This book on the Minor Prophets is written for those young in the Christian faith or for students desiring a short panoramic view of the general message of this part of the Old Testament. Although not an exhaustive commentary, it will serve as an excellent guide to this section of Scripture.
The theology is conservative with prophetic sections interpreted from a strong background of pre-tribulational, pre-millennial futurism. An emphatic distinction is drawn between Israel and the church. Israel’s progressive downfall, future restoration, and millennial blessing are taught throughout. Its Christology is inspirational, written with a reverence that will enrich the soul.
Mr. MacDonald has again given us a work of excellence that can be enjoyed by all and studied without doctrinal reservation.
