Long ago, prophets spoke the word of God to the people. These prophets were full of zeal and sometimes madness. God got as creative as he could with this eccentric bunch. He had some of them lay on their side in the mud for days; some of them he showed visions of alien spacecrafts and creatures with eyes all over their body. Their words crossed other dimensions and predicted future events.
He spoke through them to a nation that had lost its way.

Throughout the Old Testament, God chose a number of common folk - farmers, priests, herders, even children - to deliver messages to His People. Sometimes these messages were words of encouragement, other times they were words of accusation and condemnation. But either way, His chosen messengers...

While conservative interpreters might believe that prophets were predictors and progressives believe the prophets to be simply social advocates, Walter Brueggemann argues that the prophets were "emancipated imaginers of alternative."
