![Uniqueness of Israel
What makes the history of Israelite prophecy
sui generis is the succession of apostles of
God that came to the people through the
ages. Such a line of apostle-prophets is
unknown in paganism. . . .[The pagan
prophet] incorporated a unique, self-
contained divine power; therefore his
mission ended with him.
