We're already starting to jump time with great frequency, and events are going to get more frenetic as we begin to read the Minor Prophets (as well as the Major ones). As is my wont in situations like this, here's a timeline of the Minor Prophets, when they prophesied and who their intended audience was. I've tagged it "Timeline" so that you can easily refer to it in the future in the LABELS tab about halfway down the right side of the page as you wish.
Our Chronological Study Bible suggests that Amos was the first of the Minor Prophets, and it very well might be. We'll be spending the next 3+ months (the remainder of the Old Testament, at which time salvation unto us will come, in more ways than one...) in the prophecy section of the Bible. On the down side, some of it might be difficult to understand at times, but on the up side, it won't be 2 Kings.
