Simply "THE BEST", if you're not a "Left Behind" zealot

In this day of "Left Behind" fanaticism & "Late Great Planet Earth" craziness, Haliey's book seems like a dud to many. Hailey doesn't get his exposition and application of the Minor Prophets off of the front page of today's newspaper. And he also doesn't think that "the remnant" has anything special in its future except its role in the Church. He takes the prophecies concerning "the remnant" and clearly shows how they point to the day when Israel would be brought into the Kingdom of the Messiah, also know as "The Church". His expositon is very thorough. This is not a fun read, but I don't think that it should be. I use McComiskey's set, NICOT, New American Commentary and Tyndale. But since the interpretation and meaning of the prophecies of hope concerning "the remnant" is so important, Hailey's book is the most important book on the Minor Prophets that I own. If you come from a pre-millennial viewpoint, Hailey's book will challenge your thinking; but he will do it in a kind way. I think this book is the top of the heap on the Minor Prophets. Enjoy and God bless. Mike
