Description
 
Rabbi Dr. Michael J. Shire

Publisher: Jewish Lights


An inspiring and enlightening look at the role of the prophet throughout Jewish history — Beautifully illustrated with illuminations from medieval Hebrew manuscripts in the British Library.

"Then Miriam, the prophetess, took a timbrel in her hand....And Miriam chanted for them: Sing to the Eternal One, for God has triumphed gloriously. "
— EXODUS 15:20-1

This beautifully illustrated collection of Jewish prophecy features the lives and teachings of thirty men and women.

Throughout the ages, they bravely stood up to speak God's message and made a lasting contribution to our understanding of both the human and the Divine. This book also provides an inspiring and informative description of the role each played in their own time-and an explanation of why we should know about them in our time.

These inspiring moral and spiritual leaders were critics of the evils of society, rooted out corruption among those in power and provided healing and comfort in times of despair and hardship. They ranged from the biblical prophets through the thinkers and leaders of medieval times to modern-day visionaries and activists.

All of these people spoke up bravely against the evils of their day, and were prepared to risk their lives for the sake of truth. The lives and words of these passionate advocates for change are still a source of great inspiration today. Rabbi Dr. Michael Shire introduces their own words by discussing the life and message of each prophet, revealing how much Judaism has contributed to society's moral values. Drawing parallels between the biblical and later prophets, he highlights our ongoing need for men and women to take on the role of the prophet. Illustrated with illuminations from medieval Hebrew manuscripts, The Jewish Prophet is a richly decorated and fascinating collection of inspiration and wisdom; and the only book to gather together prophecy from ancient, medieval and modern times.
