The Twelve

Volume Four of The Things Concerning Himself

The Twelve are the last word of the prophets before the long silence: Hosea through Malachi, read as one book and one chorus. Across twenty-three sessions we walk from Hosea’s ransomed bride to Malachi’s rising sun, marking law and gospel where they fall and following the risen Lord’s own way of reading, beginning with Moses and all the prophets, to the things concerning Himself.
