What other authors write about prophecy?
Shakespeare touches on prophecy in some of his plays. Macbeth is probably his most famous for this. The Greek play-write Sophocles formed his three part work, Antigone, Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Colonus, around prophecies. To get a little more modern, Herman Melville worked prophecies into one of the greatest American novels of all time, Moby Dick. But if you want the Holy Grail of prophecies, the Pentateuch, or the first five books of the Bible and the entire Torah, is the best place to look. Many of the same prophecies show up in the Koran as well. It's a great prophetic resource.

The number three represented evil in the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth'. For example, there were three witches, who weren't good witches. The three witches had three greetingsand three predictions each for Banquo and Macbeth. They had three more predictions with Macbeth's second visit with them. All of the information from two interactions with the witches helped push the brave Macbeth ever more towards his dark side of ambition and manipulability. Macbeth went on to kill directly, or to be directly responsible for killing, three specific times. The first was the murder of his own sovereign, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040]. The second and third were the hired killings of his best friend and fellow Captain Banquo, and of his colleague Macduff's entire family and household.
