A figure or voice that opposes, contradicts, or speaks against a prophet or prophecy; one who denies prophetic claims.
From anti- (against) + prophet (one who claims divine inspiration and predicts the future). Used theologically and historically to describe religious skeptics and those who rejected specific prophetic claims throughout religious history.
The Bible itself contains antiprophets—false prophets sent to test believers—making this term theologetically important for understanding how religious communities distinguish genuine divine voices from fraudulent ones.
