Called to Speak God called prophets to speak to the people on his behalf. The prophets reminded them that God would hold them accountable. The prophets also reminded them of God’s saving love. © sedmak / iStockphoto.com

The Prophets: A Radical Redemption Time and again we see that God’s people lost sight of their covenant relationship with God. They needed someone to call them back to God. © Cody Wheeler / Shutterstock.com

Major and Minor Prophets Prophets with Old Testament books named for them are called the writing, or canonical, prophets. These are called major prophets or minor prophets, depending on length of their book. Prophets are also categorized based on when they lived. © jodie777 / dollarphotoclub.com

Awake, O Sleeper Before the Exile, the prophets acted as the conscience of the people. The prophets challenged people to look at their individual lives. They also called the entire nation to reflect on the unjust practices of the world. © blueeyes / Shutterstock.com

A Universal Call and Message Every generation needs men and women to challenge it to remain faithful to God. When we respond to the messages of the prophets, we are no longer enslaved to sin. We experience the redeeming love of God. © Larry St. Pierre / Shutterstock.com

Ezekiel Ezekiel wrote from Babylon where he was an exile. He challenged idolatry and injustice toward those who were vulnerable. He used symbolic actions to enhance his prophetic messages. © arindambanerjee / Shutterstock.com

A Call to Those Led Astray Ezekiel compared the leaders of Israel to shepherds who have not led their sheep on the path of righteousness. Ezekiel held the leaders responsible for the eventual destruction of the people. © Dalibor Sevaljevic / Shutterstock.com

A Vision of Dry Bones In a vision, God directed Ezekiel to prophesy to the dry bones that filled a valley. He commanded Ezekiel to herald a time when God would breathe new life into their dead faith. Nothing would stand in the way of God’s promise of salvation. © Ttstudio / Shutterstock.com

Jeremiah Jeremiah’s writings reflect events before and during the Babylonian Exile. Jeremiah called for the unfaithful Israelites to repent and return to the Lord. © Anneka / Shutterstock.com

A Call to Faithfulness Jeremiah prophesied that if the people did not repent, punishment was inevitable. Following the destruction of Jerusalem, his prophecies became hopeful. He promised that God would write his Law on the people’s hearts. © Africa Studio / Shutterstock.com

Isaiah First Isaiah challenged the Israelites to eliminate the unjust treatment of the poor. Second Isaiah offered words of hope and encouragement during the Exile. After the Exile, Third Isaiah cried out against the return to unjust and idolatrous practices. © George P. Choma / Shutterstock.com

Emmanuel, God with Us The Book of Isaiah sings of messianic hope. The promised Messiah would be wisdom incarnate, a defender of his people, a faithful parent, and an agent of peace. He would inaugurate a peaceful kingdom. © Tischenko Irina / Shutterstock.com

Messiah and King Isaiah announced that a new king would come from the throne of David. He would judge with righteousness. He would inaugurate a peaceful kingdom. All creation would bow before Emmanuel. © V. J. Matthew / Shutterstock.com
