The Twelve Minor Prophets (Hebrew: שנים עשר and Imperial Aramaic: תרי עשר "Twelve"; Koine Greek: δωδεκαπρόφητον, lit. 'Twelve Prophets'; Latin: Duodecim prophetae, lit. 'Twelve Prophet'), or the Book of the Twelve, is a collection of prophetic books written between about the 8th and 4th centuries BCE that appear in both the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament. In the Hebrew Bible, they appear as a single book, "The Twelve", which is the last book of the Nevi'im, the second of its three major divisions. In the Old Testament, the collection appears as twelve individual books of the Bible, one for each of the prophets: the Book of Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. Their order, and position in the Old Testament, varies slightly between the Protestant, Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Bibles. The name "Minor Prophets" goes back to Augustine of Hippo, who distinguished the 12 shorter prophetic books as prophetae minores...
