In Micah, we see the humble justice and mercy of Jesus as the one whose life and death answer Micah’s difficult question: “What does the Lord require?” (6:8)
Lesson 5: Isaiah- There are Some Things You Can’t Unsee
In Isaiah, we see Jesus as the divine King seated on the throne Isaiah saw in the year King Uzziah died, as the suffering servant who will be punished in place of his people, and as the coming conqueror who will put an end to evil.

In Habakkuk, we see that Jesus is the one by whom sinful, faithless people are credited the righteousness needed to live by faith.

In Jeremiah, we see Jesus finally fulfilling God’s promise of a new covenant that will implant, in us, a heart that wants to obey.
