Most of the prophets for each king are unrecorded, but Gad Nathan were prophets under king David.

There's a list of prophets at wikipedia, but many of these were scribes, not prophets in the literal sense. Also, some of these listed are not prophets as we understand them. Take the list with a grain of salt, and research each name before using them.

The name of the main sons of prophet Jacob (or Yaqoob) is Youcuf (or Joseph) and Benyamin (or Benjamin)

Yes, she was. She was actually the Queen Esther.

Isaiah prophesied that a savior would be born to a Virgin. Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Sixty-three, a very respectable age in the 16th century.

The way to become a prophet is not easy. You'll have to give your soul to God. As in pray for Long hours, remember him all the time and not forgetting him for a second. If you really want to meet the Lord with all your heart, your half way there. But if you want to become a prophet for the power or in anther case want followers and to become famous. Don't even try. So just have love for God, never forget him and dont SIN. But you'll have to do this for a long time till you get there.

Amos was a Shepard (Amos 1:1)who was born in Tekoa, 10 miles south of Jerusalem. He worked seasonally as a nipper of sycamore figs, and God made him a prophet in the 9th century BCE. He was sent to the idolatrous 10-tribe kingdom of Israel in the north, and was used as a prophet during the rule of Uzziah, king of Judah and Jeroboam II, son of Joash, king of Israel.

He was also the writer of the book of Amos in the Bible

الحمد لله والصلاة والسلام على سيدنا رسول الله

The final ghazwa of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was Ghazwa Tabuk, which took place in Rajab on the 9th year after Hijrah.

The Muslims were 30,000 soldiers with 10,000 horses.

They remained in Tabuk (northern Saudi Arabia) for around 20 days waiting to confront the Byzantine army, but no battle ensued.

(Ibn al-Jawzi in al-Wafa: 2/246, al-Maktabah al-Asriyyah)

And Allah Ta'ala knows best.

Samuel, King of Israel, and God's covenant with him and his people, the Israelites.


The major story-line in 1 Samuel is how Samuel (the last of the Judges) chose, through prophecy, the first two kings, Saul and David. It includes the life of Saul and the early years of David.

The major prophets are Samuel, Daniel, Isaiah. Jeremiah and Ezekiel.

The answer to this question depends entirely on the religion in question.

According to Judaism, the two answers are different. The Greatest Prophet was Moses. The Last Prophet was Malachi.

According to Christianity, there is much contention over who was the Greatest Prophet, between Moses, Isaiah, John the Baptist and others. John the Baptist, however, was certainly the Last Prophet in Christianity. (Jesus Christ is not a prophet since a prophet must be someone separate from God who receives visions from God. Since Jesus Christ is God, he cannot be also be a prophet.)

According to Islam, the Greatest Prophet and the Last Prophet are both Mohammed.

According to Baha'i, the Greatest Prophet and the Last Prophet are the Baha'ullah.

The list goes on...

After Daniel interpreted King Nebuchadnezzar's dream he put in high position making him ruler of the whole province of Babylon and put Daniel in charge of all the wise men. King Nebuchadnezzar also gave him many gifts.

Noah was a man who was told by God to build an arc and gather all the animals in pairs. He did so, saving all animal life from extinction when God flooded the earth, killing all those not on the arc.

The maqam of Musa is located about 24 km to the east of Jerusalem and 7 km southwest of Jericho in a desert.

Not directly and maybe not at all.

There is a tradition that states that Isaiah was executed by the wicked King Manasseh by sawing him in half (Manasseh was not a very nice man). We may note in this regard that Isaiah's prophecy ceases with Hezekiah and Manasseh succeeded him. (Isaiah 1:1 contains the list of Kings of Judah under which Isaiah prophesied) We also know that Manasseh 'shed innocent blood very much.' Most certainly this refers to the passing of living children into the outstretched arms of the idol Moloch. But it may also refer to the execution of people like Isaiah who was obviously innocent. If the tradition is accurate - and it is certainly possible from what we know of Manasseh plus the historical time-frame - then Hebrews 11:37 '....they were sawn asunder..' is a reference to this murderous crime.

If Hebrews 11:37 is not a reference to Isaiah then it is not mentioned. In any case the Bible itself does not, without recourse to tradition, mention it.

There are many prophets who are counted in both Christianity and Judaism. These are the prophets represented in Old Testament Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, Joel, Obadiah, Amos, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi, Elisha and Elijah to mention few of the most famous. Most of them lived during the time when nation of Israel was divided into two kingdoms and their role was to call people to return back to the living God through repentance.

Apostle Paul mentions prophets as a part of New Testament church as well. he does not specify the role much, so we can possibly assume that their role is similar to the role in Old Testament - calling people of God to see the truth and return to God through repentance. These people are called to serve and equip the believers (Paul's letter to Ephesians chapter 4 verses 11-12 he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.
