Strong's Lexicon nebuah: Prophecy Original Word: נְבוּאָה Word Origin: Derived from the root נָבָא (naba), meaning "to prophesy" or "to speak by divine inspiration." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4394 (προφητεία, prophēteia): Refers to prophecy or the gift of communicating and enforcing revealed truth. - G4396 (προφήτης, prophētēs): Refers to a prophet, one who speaks forth by divine inspiration. Usage: The term "nebuah" refers to a message or revelation from God delivered through a prophet. 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. Cultural and Historical Background: 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.
