Three neglected but important prophets receive a fresh and penetrating analysis in this introduction and commentary. For each prophet's work Joyce Baldwin first considers the
general issues of author, text and message, then offers a passage-by-passage commentary.
"Considerable attention has been given in the book to background material, and proper consideration is accorded to the views of those from whom the author differs," writes reviewer R. K. Harrison. "In expounding the text, Dean Baldwin produces evidence of balanced scholarship and a high degree of spiritual insight." Joyce G. Baldwin, Old Testament scholar and dean of women at Trinity College, Bristol, is also the author of Daniel in this series.
