Prophets Soothsayers Seers
I Sam. 2 :27-33 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh’s house? ( obviously, a prophet speaking in the name of the LORD! Yet, he is not named, nor is he even titled as a prophet – he was “ a man of God !” ) 9:9 (Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, thus he spake, Come, and let us go to the seer: for he that is now called a Prophet was beforetime called a Seer.) 9:10 Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the city where the man of God was.
Josh. 13:22 Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
II Kings 17:13 Yet the LORD <3068> testified <5749> against Israel <3478>, and against Judah <3063>, by <3027> all the prophets <5030>, [and by] all the seers <2374>, saying <559>, Turn <7725> ye from your evil <7451> ways <1870>, and keep <8104> my commandments <4687> [and] my statutes <2708>, according to all the law <8451> which I commanded <6680> your fathers <1>, and which I sent <7971> to you by <3027> my servants <5650> the prophets <5030>. |
