  • Moses Deborah Samuel Gad and Nathan Elijah and Elisha Amos
    PROPHECY, PROPHETS Reception and declaration of a word from the Lord through a direct prompting of the Holy Spirit and the human instrument thereof. Old Testament Three key terms are used of the prophet. Ro'eh and hozeh are translated as "seer." The most important term, nabi, is usually translated "prophet." It probably meant "one who is called to speak." Moses History Moses, perhaps Israel's greatest leader, was a prophetic prototype (Acts 3:21-24). He appeared with Elijah in the transfiguration (Matt. 17:1-8). Israel looked for a prophet like Moses (Deut. 34:10). Deborah Prophets also played a role in the conquest and settlement of the Promised Land. The prophetess Deborah predicted victory, pronounced judgment on doubting Barak, and even identified the right time to attack (Judg. 4:6-7,9,14). Samuel Samuel, who led Israel during its transition to monarchy, was a prophet, priest, and judge (1 Sam. 3:20; 7:6,15). He was able to see into the future by vision (3:11-14) and to ask God for thunder and rain (12:18). Samuel led in victory over the Philistines (1 Sam. 7), and God used him to anoint kings. Gad and Nathan Gad and Nathan served as prophets to the king. Elijah and Elisha Elijah and Elisha offered critique and advice for the kings. The prophets did more than predict the future; their messages called Israel to honor God. Their prophecies were not general principles but specific words corresponding to Israel's historical context. Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah Similarly the classical or writing prophets were joined to history.

  • What Is Biblical Prophecy?
    What is Biblical Prophecy? What Biblical Prophecy is NOT, and What It Really IS: Contrary to what many fundamentalist preachers or late-night radio hosts would have you believe, biblical prophecy is not primarily about “predicting the future” or finding clues in the Bible that correspond to people or events in our own day and age! The prophets of Ancient Israel did not look into some kind of crystal ball and see events happening thousands of years after their own lifetimes. The books they wrote do not contain hidden coded messages for people living in the 20th or 21st centuries! Rather, biblical prophets were mainly speaking to and writing for the people of their own time. They were challenging people of their own world, especially their political rulers, to remain faithful to God’s commandments and/or to repent and turn back to God if they had strayed. They were conveying messages from God, who had called or commissioned them, rather than speaking on their own initiative or authority. However, because the biblical prophets were transmitting messages on behalf of God (as Jews and Christians believe), much of what they wrote for their own time is clearly also relevant for people living in the modern world. The overall message of faith and repentance is timeless and applicable in all ages and cultures. To understand what biblical prophecy really is, let’s look more closely at the origins, definitions, and uses of some key biblical words. In the Hebrew Bible, the word for “prophet” is usually nabi’ (lit. “spokesperson”; used over 300 times!), while the related feminine noun nebi’ah (“prophetess”) occurs only rarely.

  • The Image of Female Prophets in Ancient Greek and Jewish Literature
    The Image of Female Prophets in Ancient Greek and Jewish Literature Ancient Jewish literature contains frequent references to prophets as the hu- man transmitters of allegedly divine messages.1 Prophetic figures appear in prose narratives, and texts preserve oracles that are attributed to prophetic figures, as well. Given this rich background, one can say that in some ways prophecy is a characteristic element of ancient Jewish literature. But within the canonical biblical texts that ground this tradition, only four women – Miriam, .(נביאה) Deborah, Huldah, and Noadiah – are explicitly referred to as prophets General treatments of prophets in the Hebrew Bible have on occasion paid attention to the remarkably few references to women prophets found in these texts.2 Meanwhile, others have brought female figures into the center of their studies in different ways. Carol Meyers explores the professional women of ancient Israel and argues that women had different functions in that realm, including prophecy. According to Meyers, the work of female prophets was not restricted to proclaiming the divine will; their function may have been broader and may have overlapped with other professionals.3 Apart from his- torical studies, attention has been dedicated to female prophets in studies that focus more generally on women in the context of biblical literature and with particular attention to different biblical authors’ views on women and their status.4 More recently, the study of classical prophecy has been brought into 1 For the definition see, e. g., M. Nissinen, “What is Prophecy? An Ancient Near Eastern Per- spective,” in Inspired Speech: Prophecy in the Ancient Near East (eds.

  • Oracular Cursing in Hosea 13
    ORACULAR CURSING IN HOSEA 13 by PAUL N. FRANKLYN 1709 Welcome Lane, Nashville, TN 37216 Each student of the prophet Hosea is impressed by the profound focus that the cult assumes in the rhetoric of the book. Notable excep­ tions are Utzschneider ( 1980) and Hentschke ( 1957) who examine traditio­ historical evidence to argue that Hosea's true foil is the monarchy. The cult, however, is institutionalized according to past scholarship through the speeches of Hosea in three ways: (I) with connections to the fertility cult; (2) with links to the juridical practices acculturated from secular courts; and (3) as a levitical prophet who is trained to search out and destroy cultic apostasy. The speech forms that hypothetically fit the first two settings-dramas or myths of the fertility cult, and oracles of judgment for the city gate-have been well described. The third explana­ tion, which has gained the most recent adherents, is relatively unsub­ stantiated with unique or specific speech forms. After a review of past explanations for Hosea's cultic emphasis, this article proposes a new speech form, the "curse oracle," for the levitical prophet opposed to cultic apostasy. A full argument for the curse oracle in Hosea, including a complete textual, form-critical, and traditio­ historical analysis of Hosea 13, can be found in the author's dissertation (Franklyn, 1986). Connection with the Fertility Cult Hosea is obviously familiar with the cultic practices assigned to the Baca! deities. We are reminded of the influential essay by H. G. May (1932, pp. 76-98), which comes from a period when the religion of Mesopotamia was far too easily paralleled with that of Canaan.

  • Deborah and Barak TEACHER BIBLE STUDY the Time of the Judges Continued After the Death of Ehud
    1st-3rd Grade Kids Bible Study Guide Unit 9, Session 2: Deborah and Barak TEACHER BIBLE STUDY The time of the judges continued after the death of Ehud. The Israelites fell into a continuous cycle of sin, bondage, deliverance, and peace. The people of Israel were oppressed by the king of Canaan. At this time, Deborah was the judge of Israel. Deborah sent for Barak and encouraged him to take up an army and fight the army of Canaan and its leader, Sisera. Deborah reminded Barak that God would hand Sisera and his troops over to him. (Judges 4:6-7) Barak agreed to go under one condition: that Deborah would go with him. Deborah went, but she informed Barak that he would get no glory for the battle; God was going to use a woman to defeat Sisera. When Barak went down from Mount Tabor with 10,000 men, “The LORD threw Sisera and all his army into confusion with the sword before Barak” (Judges 4:15). Everyone in the army died, but Sisera escaped on foot. Sisera fled to the tent of Jael, who invited him inside and gave him a drink. While Sisera slept, Jael drove a tent peg through his temple and he died. Judges 5 records a victory song Deborah and Barak sang on that day, praising God for defeating the Canaanites. The land had rest for 40 years. The Israelites’ sin had resulted in 20 years of defeat. God fought for the Israelites and used Deborah, Barak, and Jael to accomplish the Israelites’ victory over Canaan.
