Description
Joel's arresting imagery – blasting trumpet, darkened sun and marching hosts – has shaped the church's eschatological vision of a day of wrath. Amos's ringing indictments – callous oppression, heartless worship and self-seeking gain – have periodically awakened the conscience of God's people. Twenty-five-hundred years later, those prophetic words still speak powerfully. Tchavdar Hadjiev’s commentary is a valuable guide to the fascinating world and challenging word of these two prophets, and shows how Joel and Amos addressed Israel's mind and heart.
