Best Answer

A nonliterary prophet is a prophet who is mentioned in the Bible, but is one that has no writing done by himself or of that from his servant or scribe. An example is the prophet Elijah. He is told about, but the writing is not his own.

What does fortell mean?

The term "forthtell" is contrasted with "foretell" in discussions of Christian Biblical prophecy. Prophets may tell what is to happen in the future and they would then be foretelling. If they are instead, not specifically speaking of the future but are delivering a message of God then they are telling forth or communicating God's message. Thus they "forthtell". It may be the case that "forthtell" is used by a group of Biblical interpreters who reject the position that the prophets spoke of the future events. These interpreters would claim the books of the prophets were not written in the time period that the books themselves describe but rather that they were written after all the events in the book had already happened. Thus, the possibility of telling the future is eliminated and it can only be said that the prophet forthtells. In other words, they claim that the events which the book describes as revelations of future events were falsely represented as future events. They were actually in the past so the prophet had no true revelation of the future and could only tell what was past. This position is often taken by those who would reject the idea of divine inspiration of the prophets and even the idea that God can reveal the future.
