In Jewish tradition, a heavenly or divine voice that conveys messages from God, often heard after the period of prophecy ended.
From Hebrew 'bat kol' (literally 'daughter of a voice'), combining 'bat' (daughter) and 'kol' (voice). This theological concept appears in rabbinic literature and reflects a way of understanding divine communication.
The bathkol is essentially the Jewish equivalent of an oracle—it's how God supposedly communicated after direct prophecy stopped, making it the ancient world's version of intuition or conscience!
