Sažetak
The article offers a panoramic elaboration of ethics in the prophets. A more detailed exposition is offered in the song of the Lord's vineyard, offered as an allegory of people's behaviour towards God, and describing the prophet's paradoxical witnessing and his instructions on human life (Isaiah). The prophet's ethics on suffering are articulated in the song of conversion and the social ethical talks, the talk in the temple, personal suffering, a special social talk, including a treatise on how people must be obedient to God, just as were the Recabites towards their ancestors (Jeremiah). The prophet is a sign of life; and every person who is responsible for his actions is a promoter of life (Ezekiel). The theology of secular religiosity is of particular ethical importance is (Micah). The prophet's incessant interest is in renewal: mainly relating to the Old Testament priesthood, the family and the contribution of the tithe (Malahiah).
