Jewish prophecy

Jewish prophecy involves divine messages delivered by prophets, serving to guide, warn, and inspire the community. Prophets, considered chosen by God, communicated insights about morality, social justice, and future events. Their role was to call people back to God's commandments and prepare them for God's plans, often through vivid visions or spoken words. Prophecies can be historical, moral, or messianic, emphasizing ethical behavior and hope for a future era of peace. While many prophecies address immediate concerns, some have ongoing significance, shaping Jewish faith and identity across generations.
