In Chronological Order.

Transcriber’s note grid with category rows down the left ("Passages chiefly") and one narrow column per prophet across the top (names and dates printed vertically for the narrow columns). Dotted-leader cells are empty and transcribed as empty. In several columns the entries sit about one line lower than the row labels; entries were assigned to rows by their sequence down each column (e.g. Obadiah "1" is the Edom row). Curly braces in print group entries across rows; per rule 5 a braced group is placed in the first row it spans, with print line breaks kept as <br>. Braces: Micah "ii.; iii.; vi." spans To Israel and To Judah; Hosea "v. 8-vi. 3" spans Prophetic Israel and Judah; Isaiah "xiv. 24-28; xvii. / viii. 5-9" is braced across Prophetic Israel and Judah (placed by line); Micah "i. / vii." braced across Prophetic Israel and Judah; under "Events subsequent": Hosea "i. 10; ii. 14-23; iii. 5" spans Israel and Judah; Isaiah "viii." spans Israel and Judah, Isaiah "x.-xii. / xl. / to / lxvi." spans Israel to Gentiles, and a brace joins "ix.; i.-v; xxvii.-xxxv." at the Gentiles row; Joel "ii. 28-iii." spans Israel to Gentiles; Micah "ii. 12 / iv. 5 / and / vii." spans Israel to Gentiles; Zephaniah "iii. 8-20" spans Israel to Gentiles; Jeremiah "xxx.; xxxiii.; xxxi.; xxiii. 5" spans Israel and Judah inside a larger brace with "iii. 13" spanning Israel to Gentiles; Obadiah "17-21" spans Israel and Judah; Ezekiel "vi. 10; xxxix. 23, etc." spans Israel and Judah, and "xxviii.; xxix. 21; ..." is braced at Judah; Haggai "ii. 6, 7" and Zechariah "i. 7-vii. viii.-xiv." are braced from Judah to Gentiles. The Moral/Devotional row placements of Lam. i.-v., Habakkuk iii. and of the Haggai/Zechariah/Malachi entries (To Judah) are by sequence, as those columns print only two lines against the three labels.
