Hosea
Old Testament · 7 sections · scripture: Berean Standard Bible
With Hosea the Twelve begin — the twelve short prophetic books that the Hebrew Bible counts as one scroll and calls simply "the Book of the Twelve." They were copied onto one scroll together because they are short, not because their authors had less to say.
