Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel—speaking truth to power and hope to the hopeless.
About the Major Prophets: Called "major" not because they're more important than the minor prophets, but because their books are longer. These four prophets span the critical period from Assyrian threats through Babylonian exile to Persian restoration. They proclaimed God's judgment on sin while offering hope for restoration. Their messages remain powerfully relevant for understanding God's heart for justice, his plan for the nations, and his faithfulness to his promises.
Timeline: Isaiah (740-700 BC), Jeremiah (627-580 BC), Ezekiel (593-571 BC), Daniel (605-536 BC). Together they cover over 200 years of Israel's most turbulent history.
