Usage: The term προφητικός is used to describe something that is related to or characteristic of a prophet or prophecy.

Context: The Greek term προφητικός (prophētikos) is an adjective that is used to describe anything related to prophecy or prophets. In the New Testament, this term underscores the divine inspiration and authority of prophetic messages. The prophetic role is central to the biblical narrative, serving as a conduit for God's communication with humanity. Prophets were seen as God's spokespersons, delivering messages that could include warnings, guidance, or revelations about future events. In the New Testament, the prophetic gift is affirmed as a vital part of the early Christian community. The Apostle Paul, in his letters, emphasizes the importance of prophecy for edification, encouragement, and consolation of the church (1 Corinthians 14:3). The prophetic writings, including those of the Old Testament prophets, are considered foundational to understanding God's redemptive plan. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) reflects this understanding in passages that highlight the role of prophecy in revealing God's will and purpose. For example, in 2 Peter 1:19, the prophetic word is described as "a lamp shining in a dark place," emphasizing its guiding and illuminating function for believers.
