Usage: The term נְבִיא is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the books of Daniel and Ezra, to denote a prophet or one who proclaims a divine message. Context: The Aramaic term נְבִיא (neḇîʾ) is used in the context of the exilic and post-exilic periods, reflecting the linguistic environment of the Jewish people during their time in Babylon and subsequent return to Judah. This term appears in the Aramaic sections of the Old Testament, notably in the book of Daniel, which contains narratives and visions that emphasize the role of prophets as intermediaries between God and His people. In Daniel, the term is used to describe figures who receive divine revelations and communicate God's messages to kings and nations. The role of the prophet, as indicated by this term, is to convey God's will, often involving foretelling future events or providing guidance and correction to the people of God.
