Prophecies

/ˈprɑfəsiz/ noun

Definition

Predictions or declarations about future events, typically regarded as divinely inspired or having supernatural insight. They often contain warnings, promises, or revelations about what is to come.

Etymology

From Greek prophēteia, from prophētēs (prophet), combining pro- (before) and phanai (to speak). The concept of divine revelation about future events has been central to many religious traditions throughout history.

Kelly Says

Many famous prophecies are written in deliberately ambiguous language, allowing for multiple interpretations - this is why Nostradamus's quatrains continue to fascinate people centuries later. The self-fulfilling prophecy phenomenon shows how predictions can actually influence their own outcomes.
