Description
Excerpt from Psychology of Prophecy: A Study of the Prophetic Mind, as Manifested By, the Ancient Hebrew Prophets
SO far as I know a Psychology of Prophecy has not yet been written. The present attempt at presenting Prophecy from a psychological standpoint can be little more than an outline of how such a study might be pur sued, an analysis only, as it were, of the problem and an indication in what direction the answer may be looked for.
Every serious student of Prophecy will accept the fact, I believe, that the Prophets announce the Word of God. The question arises, however: How is this Word of God communicated? In what way does the Prophet become conscious of his Prophecy? Is it primarily an objective or a subjective process? If objective, how does it take place? If subjective, how does the mind proceed?
