Over the last thirty years, scholars have begun to explore the implications of an ancient Jewish and Christian tradition that referred to the âMinor Prophetsâ as âthe Twelve,â âthe Twelve Prophets,â or the âBook of the Twelve.â Scholarly work on the Book of the Twelve in the last quarter century has focused on two issues in particular: 1) Developing models regarding how the Book of the Twelve came to be recorded on a single scroll, and 2) Isolating unifying elements that transcend the individual writings and take on new significance when the Book of the Twelve becomes a single collection rather than twelve distinct writings.Dr. Nogalskiâs comprehensive and accessible commentary offers an overview of the ancient traditions concerning the Book of the Twelve that lay the foundation for understanding these recent developments.
