These men, believing themselves the mouth-pieces of God, kept the old Jewish faith and patriotism alive by denouncing the wretchedness of the rulers and painting the glorious future of the Jewish people. They declared that all the misfortunes of the nation were manifestations of God's displeasure. Their prophecies concerning the brilliant future of the nation the so-called Messianic prophecies- were couched in the vaguest terms and were destined never to be fulfilled...
