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." -Eithne O' Leyne, BOOK NEWS, Inc.<br>
