What qualifies a person for being a prophet?

Answer 1

AnswerThe early Jews used the term 'prophet' to refer to anyone believed to communicate directly with God. This ability did not require them to be able to foretell the future.

Later, the term 'prophet' began to mean a person who could foretell the future, particularly in Christianity. This helps justify reinterpreting the works of the ancient prophets, to find new meanings. After all, once a prophet is recognised as being able to prophesy, then it becomes our job to find those hidden prophecies.

The prophet seems to know what God wants and how he wants people to behave. A main factor in being considered a prophet was to have followers who are convinced of the prophet's veracity.
