Prophecy

Prophecy involves a process in which one or more messages allegedly communicated to a prophet〔(Prophecy (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) )〕 are then communicated to other people. Such messages typically involve divine inspiration, interpretation, or revelation of events to come (compare divine knowledge). Historically, clairvoyance has been used as an adjunct to prophecy.〔

==Etymology==
The English word "prophecy" (noun) in the sense of "function of a prophet" appeared in Europe from about 1225, from Old French ''profecie'' (12th century), and from Late Latin ''prophetia'', Greek ''prophetia'' "gift of interpreting the will of God", from Greek ''prophetes'' (see prophet). The related meaning "thing spoken or written by a prophet" is from c. 1300, while the verb "to prophesy" is recorded by 1377.〔("Prophecy" ) in the Online Etymology Dictionary〕
The word prophecy comes from the Greek verb, προφημι (prophemi), which means “to say beforehand, foretell”; it is a combination of the Greek words, προ and φημι. The Greek prefix προ also means "before," "in front of," so etymologically προφημι means to speak in front of, as a spokesperson.〔Liddell and Scott Greek-English Lexicon〕
