You can remember, in the first lesson we have learnt that the Literary Prophets can be categorized into two divisions. They are Major and Minor Prophets. In this lesson you can learn about the three Major Prophets.
They are
1. Isaiah
2. Jeramiah
3. Ezekiel
Prophet Isaiah
The meaning of the name Isaiah is “God Saves”. Isaiah lived in the eighth century B.C. and his father was Amoz.
The meaning of the name Jeramiah is “God has lifted.” Jeramiah lived in seventh and sixth century B.C. and his father was a priest named Hilkiah.
The meaming of the name Ezekiel is “God has Encouraged” He lived in sixth Century B.C. and Ezekiel's father's name was Buzi. Prophet Ezekiel proclaimed the message of God to Israelites who were in the Babylonian Exile.
According to the call of Isaiah, the temple was the Holy palace of God, where He is dwelling. Therefore venerability of the temple should be protected and also to take action to maintain the protection, respect and honour of the place while you are serving in the temple.
Because of that;
When you are entering the church, kneel down, bend your head and worship to the Blessed Sacrament
Should not walk or run here and there
Should not talk or shout inside the church
Should not eat any food inside the church
Should come in clean and tidy clothes.
While they were proclaiming the God's message, prophets had to take the leadership. Today that task or the responsibility was given to you who were baptized. Therefore we have to develop the leadership qualities to lead;
Facing the challanges
Accepting the responsibilities
Working as a community
Dedicating for the work
