The Book of the Twelve: One Scroll, Many Voices w/ Dr James Nogalski
Dr. James Nogalski joins Pastor Johnny Ova on The Dig In Podcast to walk us through the Book of the Twelve, not as twelve random prophetic books, but as one unified scroll with a powerful message. From Hosea to Malachi, this conversation uncovers how themes of justice, restoration, and covenant all come together across time, space, and scribal design.
We explore:
- Why the prophets were compiled into one scroll
- How recurring themes create literary and theological unity
- The role of the Day of Yahweh and its misunderstood meaning
- What we miss when we read these books in isolation
- And why Jonah might be the most surprising book in the Bible
Dr. Nogalski is the Craig Professor of Hebrew Bible at Baylor University and has spent four decades researching this topic.
