therefore you will no longer see false visions or practice divination. I will deliver My people from your hands. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”
God does not promise these women will repent or gain sound minds; He promises they will be stripped of their prophetic pretense. When Jerusalem fell and the people were dragged into exile, their lies were exposed for all to see. They may still hunger to invent new revelations, but they will be despised, because God has made their vanity evident to every man.
AI summary
The devil works through prophetesses no less than through male false prophets, and their sex neither excuses their sin nor shields them from God's rebuke. These women prophesy from their own hearts, saying whatever comes uppermost, and they find eager listeners among people who prefer pleasing lies to hard truths. When sinners grow bold, reprovers must be bold as well.
