Prophet

In religion, a prophet is an individual who is claimed to have been contacted by the supernatural or the divine, and to speak for them, serving as an intermediary with humanity, delivering this newfound knowledge from the supernatural entity to other people.〔(prophet - definition of prophet by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia )〕〔(prophet - Definition from the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary )〕 The message that the prophet conveys is called a prophecy.
Claims of prophethood have existed in many cultures through history, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, in Ancient Greece, Zoroastrianism, and many others. Traditionally, prophets are regarded as having a role in society that promotes change due to their messages and actions.
The English word ''prophet'' comes from the Greek word προφήτης (''profétés'') meaning advocate or speaker. In the late 20th century the appellation of ''prophet'' has been used to refer to individuals particularly successful at analysis in the field of economics, such as in the derogatory ''prophet of greed''. Alternatively, social commentators who suggest escalating crisis are often called ''prophets of doom.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】 accessdate = 2009-04-09 )
