Maurice Samuels, featured on the "Eternal Light" television series was discussing the difference between the Jewish Bible and the Christian Bible. In our Tanakh, the Prophets come before the Writings. In the Christian arrangement, the Prophets come last. Maurice Samuels gave this explanation: For the Christian Bible it is necessary to conclude with the destruction of the Jews and Judaism, in order to lead into the New Testament with its message of the New Covenant replacing the old, redemption following upon the destruction of the old Israel. Therefore, Malachi at the end of the “Old Testament” is perfect. “When I come I will strike the whole land with destruction.”
