1. Any one being a spokesman for God to man.
The foretelling of future events was not a necessary but only a part of the prophetic office. The great task assigned to the prophets whom God raised up among the people was "to correct moral and religious abuses, to proclaim the great moral and religious truths which are connected with the character of God, and which lie at the foundation of his government."
Moses may be the greatest among all the old testament prophets. The Hebrew word 'Nabi' is the first and the most generally used word for a prophet.

The prophetical order began with Samuel. Colleges, "schools of the prophets", were instituted for the training of prophets, who were constituted, a distinct order (1 Sam. 19:18-24; 2 Kings 2:3, 15; 4:38), which continued to the close of the Old Testament. Such "schools" were established at Ramah, Bethel, Gilgal, Gibeah, and Jericho.

In New Testament times the prophetical office was continued. Our Lord is frequently spoken of as a prophet (Luke 13:33; 24:19). He was and is the great Prophet of the Church. There was also in the Church a distinct order of prophets (1 Cor. 12:28; Eph. 2:20; 3:5), who made new revelations from God. They differed from the "teacher," whose office was to impart truths already revealed.

Dogs have surrounded me; a band of evil men has encircled me,
they have pierced my hands and my feet. (Psalm 22:16)
