It looks at prophecy as a charismatic phenomenon often in conflict with monarchy and established religion. The prophets were the messengers of the Lord, commissioned to take a word of judgement, often enough, to their communities but always with an eye to hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Friendly Guide to the Prophets explores in detail some of the key questions surrounding the prophetic movement: who were the prophets? Why did prophecy emerge in ancient Israel at this particular time and why did it have such an enduring impact on Judeo-Christian faith? What did the prophets preach about? The Friendly Guide looks at the teaching and preaching of some of the great prophets as a way of exploring these questions: Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel. One of the reasons why prophecy has such an enduring appeal is because there is a disturbing similarity between the world of the prophets and our own. The Friendly Guide finally asks the question: are there prophets among us today? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Boyle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1925009610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781925009613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Garratt Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 58\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 0.16d","brand":"Brian Boyle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074182639871,"sku":"9781925009613","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da45f86d-f5e8-40ef-9fa9-fa6805405ca5.jpg?v=1685452267","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/friendly-guide-to-the-prophets-brian-boyle-9781925009613","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
