Isaiah was called to be a prophet during a time when the southern kingdom of Judah was in spiritual decline.
God called him in 740 BC, after the death of King Uzziah, before the destruction of the northern kingdom of Israel.
After the northern kingdom of Israel was destroyed by Assyria, the southern kingdom of Judah also allied with Assyria during the reign of King Ahaz and became a vassal state, gradually becoming tainted by idolatry.
--- p.16 From "Isaiah 1"

In the latter part of Isaiah, God's message of judgment gradually transforms into a message of salvation and comfort.
Especially from chapter 40 onwards, the promise of salvation and restoration through the Messiah is proclaimed in earnest, along with the declaration, “Comfort, comfort my people” (40:1).
It also vividly portrays the suffering servant of Jehovah, the Messiah, who sacrifices himself in place of sinners, and through this, we can see how Jesus fulfilled Isaiah's prophecy.
--- p.26 From "Isaiah 2"

Jeremiah was called the "weeping prophet" because he lamented and mourned the sins and destruction of God's people, and he delivered God's word amidst that suffering.
But his message of the tragedy that Judah would face was often ridiculed or ignored by the king and the people.
--- p.36 From "Jeremiah 1"

The Book of Lamentations is a prayer of lament over the ruined city and temple.
But at its heart is the confession of faith that “the Lord’s lovingkindness and compassion are endless” (3:22-23).
The prophet's tears are not simply sorrow, but lead to the hope of restoration through the Messiah.

--- p.46 From “Jeremiah 2, Lamentations”

Ezekiel delivers a message of judgment to Judah and Jerusalem, which are facing destruction.
His prophecies are full of vivid visions and symbolic actions.
The most shocking scene of all is the vision of God's glory leaving the temple.
The most desperate judgment for Israel was that God could no longer be with them because of their idolatry and sin.
--- p.56 From "Ezekiel 1"

The final part presents a vision of a new temple.
The destroyed temple is rebuilt according to God's standards, and the glory of God that had left returns to the temple.
The water flowing from the temple, restoring all things, shows that life and restoration come from God.
In Jesus, this promise of restoration has already begun.
Jesus becomes the true temple, and God dwells in us through the Holy Spirit.
Moreover, Ezekiel's vision will be fully fulfilled in the new heaven and new earth, as the Book of Revelation testifies.
--- p.66 From "Ezekiel 2"

The Book of Daniel is divided into two parts.
Chapters 1-6 tell the story of Daniel and his three friends living in faith, while chapters 7-12 contain apocalyptic visions about the nations of the world and the coming Messiah.
Chapter 7 in particular features four beasts rising from the sea, God sitting on the throne in heaven, and the Son of Man coming on a cloud.
The Son of Man refers to Jesus Christ, who will judge all the powers of the world and rule forever.
--- p.76 From “Daniel, Hosea”

The Minor Prophets are twelve prophetic books written over a period of approximately 400 years, from the 8th century BC to the post-exilic period.
These books were passed down in a single scroll.
While each prophet in each age delivered individual messages to the people of his time, it is also God's continuous and integrated word to all generations.
--- p.86 From “Minor Prophets 1”

No story in the Old Testament ends in itself.
It makes you look beyond.
It makes us hope for the complete restoration that will be accomplished through Jesus, the Messiah that God will send.
