Description
Summary:In the article the author sought to outline the basic postulates of prophetic theology that have their general and specific value. He was led by the thought of portraying the prophets as proclaimers of God’s Word. It pulled prophets away from all previous ties. On the one hand, God’s Word has shown special power, but also impotence when the prophet had nothing except its power and human freedom. This power and impotence of God’s Word has born suffering, distress, and even persecution of certain prophets. Special emphasis is placed on prophetic demands in the socio-political, religious and cult areas where prophets were true fighters for justice and rights in a very specific historical context. Already in their own time they were true fighters for human rights (ius hominis) and the rights of people (ius gentium), but also the proponents for truth from God’s perspective. Methodologically, the author has respected the historical-critical and linguistic determinants important for understanding prophets, but the emphasis was much more placed on the biblical-theological meaning, taking into account the listeners and their area of ​​interest.
