## Helps Word Studies
- Cognate: [[G4396]] prophḗtēs (from [[G4253]] /pró, "beforehand" and [[G5346]] /phēmí, "elevating/asserting one idea over another, especially through the spoken-word") – properly, one who speaks forth by the inspiration of God; a prophet. See [[G4394]] (prophēteia).
- A prophet ([[G4396]] /prophḗtēs) declares the mind (message) of God, which sometimes predicts the future (foretelling) – and more commonly, speaks forth His message for a particular situation. [[G4396]] /prophḗtēs ("a prophet") then is someone inspired by God to foretell or tell-forth (forthtell) the Word of God.
