Synopsis "Prophets of the Bible - Second Edition"
Prophets of the Bible tries to identify EVERY prophet in the Bible, named and unnamed, recognised as a prophet at the time, or said or did something which the author identifies as being prophetic that made him or her a prophet for at least that period, and then to relate a (necessarily) succinct, contextual account of their lives and ministries, together with God's eternal purposes and its relevance for today. It is a book intended for ALL, irrespective of church or other affiliation or views of eschatology, but especially those keen to study the Bible and know more about prophets and prophecy and apply this for today. Above all, it tries to encourage the people of God, especially ordinary people, during these "interesting" times. While it tries to explore the various related nooks and crannies of the Bible, including yet to be fulfilled prophecy, areas of contention as well those areas most are agreed on, and how to relate these to todays fast moving and often alarming world events, the author is keen first and foremost to apply sound biblical exegesis principles and to honour the Lord (YAHWEH). In this second edition, besides making changes to existing content, the book includes extra chapters, including attempting to relate Bible prophets and prophecy with what is going on in the world today.
