There are four major prophets in the Bible (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel), but there are five books by them (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, and Daniel). The 12 books of the "minor" prophets are no less important than those of the "major" prophets but "major" a reflection of the length of the books and the considerable number of the prophecies in them.
The classification of "Major" or "Minor Prophets" refers to the length of the book by that prophet's name, so in strict terms prophets (the people) aren't classified as "major" or "minor". This classification is used with prophetic books in the Old Testament. There are twelve shorter books collectively referred to as the "Minor Prophets" and the remaining prophetic books in the Old Testament are considerably longer in length and referred to as "Major Prophets".
These books in the Old Testament are called the Prophets. There are the major prophets and the minor prophets. The major prophets are: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, and Daniel. The minor prophets are: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. The Major Prophets are called "major" because their books are longer and the content has wide, even global implications. The Minor Prophets are called "minor" because their books are shorter and the content is more narrowly focused.
In the Bible, the distinction between Major and Minor Prophets is based on the length of the prophetic books rather than the significance of the prophets themselves. Daniel is considered a Major Prophet not necessarily because of his qualifications, but because his book is longer and more extensive in content compared to the books of the Minor Prophets. Similarly, Hosea and Zechariah are classified as Minor Prophets because their prophetic books are shorter in length. Each prophet was called by God to deliver His message to the people, regardless of their classification as Major or Minor Prophets.
