|
a prophet
|
|
That is, one pretending to the divine inspiration and authority of the prophetic office, or a dreamer of dreams, one who pretends that some deity has spoken to him in the night season, and giveth thee a sign, oth, what appears to be a miraculous proof of his mission, or a wonder, mopheth, some portentous sign, such as an eclipse, which he, who knew when it would happen, might predict to the people, who knew nothing of the matter, and thereby accredit his pretensions. But no pretended miracles must be admitted as a proof that the people might violate the first and great commandment. 1Ki 13:18; Isa 9:15; Jer 6:13; Jer 23:11; Eze 13:2,3,23; Zec 13:4; Mat 7:15; Mat 24:11; Luk 6:26; 2Pe 2:1; 1Jo 4:1 |
