Prophecy was a wide-spread phenomenon in the ancient world - not only in ancient Israel but in the whole Eastern Mediterranean cultural sphere. This is demonstrated by documents from the ancient Near East, that have been the object of Martti Nissinen’s research for more than twenty years. Nissinen's studies have had a formative influence on the study of the prophetic phenomenon. The present volume presents a selection of thirty-one essays, bringing together essential aspects of prophetic divination in the ancient Near East. The first section of the volume discusses prophecy from theoretical perspectives. The second sections contains studies on prophecy in texts from Mari and Assyria and other cuneiform sources. The third section discusses biblical prophecy in its ancient Near Eastern context, while the fourth section focuses on prophets and prophecy in the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament. Even prophecy in the Dead Sea Scrolls is discussed in the fifth section. The articles are essential reading for anyone studying ancient prophetic phenomenon.

Nostradamus. His name has echoed across four centuries forever linked to prophecy. It is believed this medieval French physician wrote more than six thousand prophetic verses in his lifetime, with the most compelling ones published in his 1555 book, Les Propheties des Nostradamus, or The Prophecies of Nostradamus. Its 942 verses, or quatrains, speak of world wars and famine, of fires and floods, of tyrants and calamities that he foresaw in his visions-vivid, violent images brought forth by divination; prophetic visions that would surface in the solitude of his study during the dead of night. Today, more than 450 years after his death, one lingering question continues to draw both skeptic and believer to his legendary work in the face of world events: Was he right? This Bayley Street Press edition is a translated republication of Les Propheties. It includes two fragmentary centuries commonly linked to the original work and 141 Presages written by Nostradamus and published as almanacs between 1555 and 1567.
