Notes On The Minor Prophets

Ironside Expository Commentaries

by H.A. Ironside

It was with no definite purpose of writing a series of Notes on the Minor Prophets as a whole, that I first began to take up various books of the twelve, in monthly installments in Help and Food for the Household op Faith. But after penning some notes on Habakkuk, Jonah, and Obadiah, I found my own soul helped, and an interest developed in the further study of these much-neglected portions of Scriptures, and so took up Hosea and the books following. I have sought to press their practical application as giving important teaching for a remnant people in a day of decline, while not neglecting their dispensational bearing. This, I am persuaded, is what is greatly needed at the present moment. If God be pleased to use the Notes for the stirring of His people’s consciences and the comfort of their hearts, the desired end will be realized.

Reviews

[Ben B · Rating 4 out of 5]

An excellent study on sorely neglected texts. The minor prophets have a lot of important messages for anyone struggling through difficult times. The message of hope is usually concealed in a wrapper of anger, but if you take the time to unwrap it, the message can really help. Ironside does a great job of filling in the historical details and other contextual material that brings these dusty old scrolls to life.
