The Role of Biblical Prophets and Their Critique of Authority
This chapter explores the traditional function of biblical prophets in ancient Israel and compares it to the role of prophets in Mormon traditions. It discusses how biblical prophets critiqued authority figures, provided divine guidance, and focused on contemporary events rather than distant future prophecies. The conversation also addresses the interpretation of Isaiahic prophecies, the nature of biblical prophets such as Isaiah, and the complexities of understanding and interpreting biblical prophecies.
