Publisher's Synopsis
Prophecy remains one of the ambiguities that need to be unlocked by critical philosophical thinking. The historicity of prophecy has suffered massive debates by different learned personages with some seeking to discredit the authenticity of the prophetic phenomena. Of central import is the African form of prophecy which, scholars tend to disagree over its roots, authenticity and historicity with much research being given to prove or disprove prophetic authority. This author seeks to prove the authentic standing of prophecy, with specific reference being attributed to the prophetic typology evident in the African prophetic circles. However, constant reference will be made to Israelite prophetic typology, origins and standing so that plausible comparison can be made and the exact classification of prophecy in Africa can be determined.
