It encompasses both foretelling future events and forth-telling God's will and guidance for His people. In the Hebrew Bible, prophecy is a means by which God communicates His plans, warnings, and promises to Israel and, at times, to other nations.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, prophets played a crucial role as intermediaries between God and the people. They were called and empowered by God to deliver His messages, often challenging the status quo and calling for repentance and faithfulness to the covenant. Prophecy was not limited to predicting future events but included exhortations, rebukes, and encouragements. The prophetic tradition was integral to Israel's religious and social life, influencing both spiritual and political spheres.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/5016.htm">nebuah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a prophesying<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>prophesying (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">נְבוּאָה</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>prophesying</b></font>; — construct <font class="hebrew2">נְבוּאַת</font> <a href="/interlinear/ezra/6-14.htm">Ezra 6:14</a>. <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>prophesying <p>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/5016.htm">nbuw'ah</a>; inspired teaching -- prophesying. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/5016.htm">nbuw'ah</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>בִּנְבוּאַת֙ בנבואת bin·ḇū·’aṯ binḇū’aṯ binvuAt<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/ezra/6-14.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Ezra 6:14</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/ezra/6.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">בָּנַ֣יִן וּמַצְלְחִ֔ין <b> בִּנְבוּאַת֙ </b> חַגַּ֣י [נְבִיאָה</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/ezra/6.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> in building <span class="itali">through the prophesying</span> of Haggai<br><a href="/kjvs/ezra/6.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> and they prospered <span class="itali">through the prophesying</span> of Haggai<br><a href="/interlinear/ezra/6-14.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> building were successful <span class="itali">the prophesying</span> of Haggai prophet<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5017.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_5017.htm">Strong's Hebrew 5017<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/binvuat_5017.htm">bin·ḇū·’aṯ — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/5016.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="5016"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="5016" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/5018.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="5018"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="5018" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
