Hosea The prophet Hosea son of Beeri lived in the tragic final days of the northern kingdom.

His life served as a parable of God's faithfulness to an unfaithful Israel. Joel The prophet Joel warned the people of Judah about God's coming judgment—and the coming restoration and blessing that will come through repentance. Amos Amos prophesied during the reigns of Uzziah over Judah B. Obadiah The prophet Obadiah warned the proud people of Edom about the impending judgment coming upon them.

Jonah Jonah is unusual as a prophetic book in that it is a narrative account of Jonah's mission to the city of Nineveh, his resistance, his imprisonment in a great fish, his visit to the city, and the subsequent outcome. Micah Micah prophesied sometime between and B. Israel was in an apostate condition. Micah predicted the fall of her capital, Samaria, and also foretold the inevitable desolation of Judah.

Malachi Malachi, whose name means "my messenger," spoke to the Israelites after their return from exile.

The theological message of the book can be summed up in one sentence: The Great King will come not only to judge his people, but also to bless and restore them. New Testament Books Matthew Matthew's main purpose in writing his Gospel the "good news" is to prove to his Jewish readers that Jesus is their Messiah. He does this primarily by showing how Jesus in his life and ministry fulfilled the Old Testament Scriptures.

Mark Since Mark's Gospel the "good news" is traditionally associated with Rome, it may have been occasioned by the persecutions of the Roman church in the period c. Mark may be writing to prepare his readers for such suffering by placing before them the life of our Lord. Luke Luke's Gospel the "good news" was written to strengthen the faith of all believers and to answer the attacks of unbelievers.

It was presented to debunk some disconnected and ill-founded reports about Jesus. Luke wanted to show that the place of the Gentile non-Jewish Christian in God's kingdom is based on the teaching of Jesus. John John's Gospel the "good news" is rather different from the other three, highlighting events not detailed in the others. The author himself states his main purpose clearly in "that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
