What are the Major and Minor Prophets?
Major Prophets and Minor Prophets are simply two categories that the Old Testament prophetic books are divided into. These terms aren’t a way of discriminating between one prophet and another. Every prophet whose writings we read in the Old Testament was inspired by God, and were each used significantly by Him. The only reason to label them Major or Minor would be the historical significance of the events they intervened in, as well as book length. The books are as follows:
Major:
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel and Daniel
Minor:
Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah and
