GODS WAYS OF SPEAKING.
The essential way that God spoke with the general population of Israel was through the prophets, whom we call "operators of disclosure." The prophets were people simply like us.
They utilized human dialect, but since they got data from God, their words worked as vessels or channels of heavenly disclosure. That is the reason they started their predictions by saying, "In this way says the Lord."
The expressions of the prophets were set down in composing and turned into the inscripturated Word of God. In this manner, the Old Testament was created by individuals like us, who, not at all like us, were assigned by God to be His representatives to His kin.
Obviously, not every person in old Israel who asserted to be a prophet was in truth a prophet; surely, Israel's greatest battle was not with antagonistic countries but rather with false prophets in the camp or inside the entryways of the city.
