The Milstein Edition of the Later Prophets: The Twelve Prophets / Trei Asar
Announcing a stellar new volume in the Milstein Edition of the Later All 12 books of Trei Asar / The Twelve Prophets in one volume.
Following the pattern of the universally acclaimed Yeshayah / Isaiah, this new volume
The universally acclaimed ArtScroll translation
A clear, broad-ranging, graceful commentary
Newly typeset Hebrew commentaries of Rashi, Radak, and Metzudos
Overview explaining the role of the prophets
Introductions and explanations of concepts and prophecies
Lightweight, opaque, acid-free paper; reinforced, sturdy binding
Gilded page headings; Ribbon place marker
This volume comprises 200 years of prophecy, from Hoshea to Malachi; from passionate calls for repentance, warnings of destruction and exile, to exhilarating visions of the Second Temple, the Messianic Redemption, and the eternal Third Temple.
These prophecies speak to every generation. They are timeless, lyrical and profound. Especially in a time of danger and hope, they remind us that we are always the people of Hashem - that He longs for us to be loyal to His Torah, that He will never abandon us, and that the Jewish people are destined for a brilliant future, no matter how dark the present may seem.
Brilliantly edited and augmented by Rabbi Menachem Davis, based on the work of Rabbi Yitzchok Stavsky and Rabbi Mattis Roberts, this new volume does justice to the Text. The Overview by Rabbi Yosef Elias is a classic in its own right. Their work brings us new dimensions of understanding and beauty. It lets the verses speak to us - in language, in outlook, in aspiration for spiritual growth.
This volume also includes the now-classic Overview to the Book of Jonah, which sheds light not only on Jonah, but on the concept of Repentance and Yom Kippur, the day when Jonah is read.
This is a volume that not only belongs in every Jewish library - it should be opened and absorbed by everyone who thirsts for the word of Hashem and a share in Jewish destiny.

It would indeed take chutzpah to review the prophecies contained in this volume. They are still in print some 2700 years after they were pronounced. Rather, I'll focus my review on the edition in which these twelve prophecies appear.
Everything which Artscroll touches is golden. (Imagine falling in love with a publishing house!) This volume is no different. In addition to the prophetic text itself, this volume includes four classical Hebrew commentaries: Rashi, Metzudoth David, Metzudoth Zion, and Radak. These are not presented as photocopies, but rather in newly set clear font. The key terms (dibburim hamatchilim) are in bold font, easy to find.
The English translation is faithful to the original Hebrew. The English language commentary is not simply a retelling of the Hebrew commentators mentioned above, but also includes other sources when pertinent.
Highly recommended for the serious student of Nevi'im.
