Did you Know?
Hosea marks a new stage in Hebrew prophecy because he is one of the first prophets to put his prophecies into writing. His book is placed at the beginning of the scroll of the twelve prophets, which the Jews have designated "The Twelve." They are sometimes called the Minor Prophets, "minor" referring to their brevity rather than their importance.
