Original Word: נְבוּאָה
Part of Speech: Noun Feminine
Transliteration: nebuah
Pronunciation: neh-voo-AH
Phonetic Spelling: (neb-oo-aw')
Definition: Prophecy
Meaning: a prediction

Word Origin: Derived from the root נָבָא (naba), meaning "to prophesy" or "to speak by divine inspiration."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4394 (προφητεία, prophēteia): Refers to prophecy or the gift of communicating and enforcing revealed truth.

- G4396 (προφήτης, prophētēs): Refers to a prophet, one who speaks forth by divine inspiration.

Usage: The term "nebuah" refers to a message or revelation from God delivered through a prophet. It encompasses both the act of prophesying and the content of the prophecy itself. In the Hebrew Bible, prophecy is often associated with foretelling future events, delivering divine judgment, or providing guidance and instruction to the people of Israel.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, prophets played a crucial role as intermediaries between God and the people. They were called to deliver God's messages, which could include warnings, promises, or calls to repentance. Prophecy was not limited to predicting the future but also involved speaking truth into the present circumstances. Prophets were often seen as God's mouthpieces, and their messages were considered authoritative and binding.
