Craigie shows the persistent meaning of this Word through the ages.Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. The author of Twelve Prophets, Volume 1 completes his study with a commentary on Micah, a contemporary of Isaiah, who foretold the birth of the Messiah; Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah, prophets who spoke for God in the last days of the Kingdom of Judah; and Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi, whose messages were directed to those reforming the community of God's people after the Babylonian Exile.

There are better books I purchased this book to supplement the Smart Guide series. I needed some material on the minor prophets, but this was not as easy to use and I will not order vol.1. There are good books for Bible Study but this is not one of them.
