Just finished Amos, I am working on my first all the way read of the Bible in a year long plan. The different prophets are fascinating they all have such different styles and backgrounds. Who's your favorite prophet? So far mine is Jeremiah, his compassion for the people of Israel really attracted me to his work.
- "Who's your favorite prophet?" Mine would be Isaiah. By far. And not only ch53 (or nearly everything ch40+), he's great treasure everywhere, ch5,6,7; ch9 is one of the most remarkable ones.... I'm not sure I learned to appreciate Jeremiah much at all, but maybe I will when I get to read/study him a bit more (planned for early summer or so). But going back to Amos: Did you use the FSB along the way? Any insights into its notes - were they helpful, was something lacking?
- I've been using a you version reading plan but vary where I read sometimes on their app or a paper Bible and sometimes on the FSB. I do enjoy the FSB and it's study notes are interesting. I really like that cross references will pop up when hovered over and the pictorial graphics are really cool. The share button didn't work as I expected though and the mobile app FSB may be better served with a diff format where you could swipe side to side to bring up study notes.
