Best Answer

This depends on the prophet, since the prophets lived at different times over the course of several centuries and their prophecies reflected the changing conditions and what God expected of them (the people) in the different times. For example, Jeremiah tells the people to settle down in Babylon and seek its peace, since the time had not yet come to do otherwise. Later, Ezra and Nehemiah encouraged the people to return to the land and personally led thousands of Jews from Babylonia back to the Holy Land.

Which Hebrew Prophets did God set outside Israel?

Answer 1According to Jewish tradition, God did not set any Hebrew prophets outside Israel.Answer 2The question may be referring to Jonah, who was sent to Nineveh. Other prophets who lived outside of Israel include Ezekiel and Daniel. However, all three of these prophets were Israelites born in the Holy Land.Answer 3Judaism acknowledges the possibility of non-Jewish prophecy, but does not consider it legitimate for Jews to follow them. The most explicit example is Balaam, who is a prophet to the Other Nations. However, Balaam is not considered part of the canon of Jewish prophets (though some of his words are recorded in the Torah [Numbers ch.22-24]).Other non-Jewish prophets mentioned in our tradition are those named in the book of Job.
