Prophets is the fourth installment of the six volumes of Immerse: The Bible Reading Experience program. Prophets presents the First Testament prophets in groupings that represent four historical periods, beginning with the prophets who spoke before the fall of Israel’s northern kingdom (Jonah, Amos, Hosea, Micah, Isaiah), then before the fall of the southern kingdom (Zephaniah, Nahum, Habakkuk), around the time of Jerusalem’s destruction (Jeremiah, Obadiah, Ezekiel), and after the return from exile (Haggai, Zechariah, Joel, Malachi).
Prophets delivers Scripture to the reader as it was originally created: without chapter or verse breaks. While references are made available for ease of finding specific Scripture references, those references do not appear within the actual text of Scripture. This makes for uninterrupted reading of God’s Word. Created with the look and feel of a paperback book, and written using the Holy Bible, New Living Translation, the most readable translation available, Prophets enables you to easily read and understand the Bible.
Ideal for a fresh approach to Bible study or the spiritual practice of Lectio Divina, this collection of fifteen Old Testament books of prophecy features:
- Comfortable single-column text
- No chapter or verse markings
- Book introductions with historical and biblical context
- Natural literary and poetic breaks
- A logical book order grouped chronologically or by similar ancient audiences
