∙ 12y agoOne thought:
Those termed the 'major' prophets from the Hebrew scriptures are generally:
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel. The so-called 'minor' prophets are Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi.
Another thought:
Various Christian traditions classify a subsection of the Old Testament as the "Major Prophets".
Protestants include five books: Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, and Daniel.
Roman Catholics add the deuterocanonical book of Baruch. Eastern Orthodox tradition includes Baruch, but separates what Catholics consider the final chapter of Baruch into its own book, Letter of Jeremiah.
Jewish tradition does not use the term Major Prophets in this way.

Why were Elijah and Elisha excluded from the list of canonical prophets?
The lives of Elijah and Elisha are written in the books of 1 and 2 Kings. The major prophets is a classification of those prophets that wrote books in the Bible namely Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. The Minor Prophets or Twelve Prophets are the names of prophets described in the last book of the Nevi'im, the second main division of the Jewish Tanakh. This book was broken each into separate books by the name of the Prophet in the Christian Old Testament. For this reason Elijah and Elisha are neither "major" prophets or "minor" prophets, which refer to the length of the books by the prophets name not the importance of the prophet or its message.
Why are books in Bible from Hosea to Malaci called minor prophets?
"Minor" in this case refers to the length of their books, it has nothing to do with their importance. In fact, it doesn't actually refer to the prophet (the person) but to the prophetic book that bears their name. In the Hebrew Bible there were twelve smaller books bundled as one called the "Twelve". The Christian Bible presents these twelve as separate books and calls them the "Minor Prophets". The longer prophetic books of the Old Testament are called "Major Prophets" and are considerably more lengthy writings. The concept of major and minor prophets is Christian and is not a concept used by Jews.
