Classical Prophecy

Belief in prophecy - the claim that God decided to reveal himself to his chosen ones and convey to them, and through them to man in general and the people of Israel in particular, his will in every matter and matter - is the most important theological characteristic of the Bible. This claim is not only fundamental to the biblical prophetic literature but also stands as the center of the Torah, and without it the story, the law, the historiography and even the psalm literature cannot be properly understood. However, the prophecy was not an abstract idea but a living faith, whose themes and expressions in Israeli society were the prophets.
