This exposition is really first-class. John Mackay focuses on the text's meaning and the books' New Testament fulfilment in Christ. While his Old Testament scholarship is very evident, he avoids technical language. Many of the study questions provide valuable projects for the reader. -- Geoffrey Grogan, Former Principal Emeritus, Glasgow Bible College Professor Mackay has done it again! This is an excellent piece of work on three `minor' prophets that are not well known in the church today. Mackay's commentary is a must read for pastors and serious Bible students who want to become familiar with what these three prophets have to say to the church today... this is a fine work. -- John Currid, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi
