CHRONOLOGY OF THE PROPHET WRITERS OF THE OLD TESTAMENT
Below is a chronology of the prophets who were writers of the Bible in the Old Testament.

There were many prophets in biblical times before Jesus. Some were writers and their
books are part of the biblical Canon accepted by the Jews, that is, those books are part of
the word of God, specifically in the part known as Nevi'im (Prophets) and the book of
Daniel, which It is part of Ketuvim, another section of the Tanach (Tanahk) or Hebrew
Bible.

There were other prophets no less important, in the time of Israel, whom God used to give
his message to his people and the other nations, but these transmitted the message, they
were not writers.

The books of the prophets in Christianity is composed by two groups, which are
the
Major Prophets and Prophets Minors. This name does not havethat see with age or with the
importance of prophets, but with respect to the extensionof the book that carries
name
of the prophet.
