The major prophets is a grouping of books in the Christian Old Testament that does not occur in the Hebrew Bible. All of these books are traditionally regarded as authored by the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. The term major prophets refers to the length of the books and not the achievement or importance of the prophets.
Note that in Jewish scripture, Daniel is not considered a prophet and is not included among the prophetic books. [2] c. 520 BC–c. 411 BC [citation needed] prophecy of Haggiah, Zechariah, Joel(?) Return to the land under Persian rule, and writings of Ezra-Nehemiah Story of Esther. c. 433 BC [?] [citation needed]
The term "major" has nothing to do with the achievement or importance of the prophets, rather the length of the books. In comparison to the books of the Twelve Minor Prophets , whose books are short and grouped together into one single book in the Hebrew Bible, these books are much longer.
