European and US scholars of religion, Old and New Testaments, Greek, and systems analysis take the gospels and epistles in turn, identifying and analyzing quotations from and allusions to the 12 prophets of the Old Testament known as the Minor Prophets. Of the 12, Hosea, Zechariah, Habakkuk, Joel, Amos , Micah, Jonah, and Haggai are quoted explicitly. The quotations all occur in the gospels (including Acts), Paul, and Hebrews. Chapters also look at allusions, there being no quotations, in James, 1 & 2 Peter, and Jude and in Revelations. T&T Clark is an imprint of Continuum.
