📘 About the Book of Habakkuk

The Book of Habakkuk is unique among the prophetic books of the Old Testament. Instead of delivering a message from God to the people, Habakkuk records a dialogue between the prophet and God. He asks difficult questions about suffering and injustice, eventually concluding with a beautiful prayer of faith. It is famous for the verse: "The righteous shall live by his faith."

🎤 Pronunciation Tip

To get the final syllable "COOK" right, make sure you are using the Lax ʊ sound (the same sound in the word "look" or "book"). Don't stretch it into a long "OO" like "food." Get more help for this vowel in this video:    • How to Pronounce Vowel U /ʊ/ in English
