Nevi'im
(redirected from Latter Prophets)

    Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.

Nevi'im

In Judaism, collective term for the books of the prophets in the Hebrew Bible. The Nevi'im contain the prophets' interpretation of history as a means of expressing God's will for the people. Together they act as God's spokesperson, explaining to the people what actions and attitudes God wanted. For example, they spoke against immorality and reminded Jews of their duty to follow God's commandments and not stray from the path of right actions, as in Isaiah 5:1–7.
