Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah: Calling for Justice, Mercy, and Faithfulness (Adult Bible Study Guides)

4/5 ( ratings)

Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah: Calling for Justice, Mercy, and Faithfulness provides a thirteen-lesson study of these Bible books.

Some of the most magnificent and challenging messages from God recorded in Scripture came during a fifty-year period of time in the eighth century before Christ. Israel was two nations—the Northern kingdom and the Southern kingdom . The times were turbulent, with many problems.

As the eighth-century prophets—Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, and Micah—all unmistakably show, Israel and Judah were in grave danger. They had neglected to their peril both what genuine commitment to God meant and what the covenant community was supposed to be like—a community of neighbors who treated one another with fairness and even mercy.

This study is not merely a history lesson, however. It’s a series of life lessons. The eighth-century prophets offer plenty of truths that make us uncomfortable about our actions in our own history—or should.
