"The prophet which foretells the Islam (Shalom),
at the coming of the word of the Prophet, that prophet
54
will be recognized to have been sent by God in truth"
(Jer. xviii. 9).
This translation is strictly literal. The original verb naba,
usually translated as "to foretell" or "to prophesy," and the
noun nabi, "a prophet" has given the impression that a pro-
phet is a person who foretells the future or past events by the
aid of divine revelation. This definition is only partially true.
