Jan 16, 2019 at 13:57 comment added user18564 The problem with this last answer is in this week's Parsha of Bshalach when Miriam is called a Nivea in respect to the singing and drum playing that she did at the shores of the yams suf. Banging on drums in a rhythmic pattern and inspiring others and off the cuff spontaneous composition of a Shira that really is a song that requires music and a beat does not happen with someone who loses control of function of their body but retains heightened control of their mind and body. It seems to me that we cannot determine the exact parameters for the term Nevuah.

Feb 27, 2017 at 19:43 comment added Yaacov Deane @DoubleAA The Zohar cited defines it that way and explicitly. It explains that this higher level of prophecy described as 'Zeh' is related to the aspect of vision and in Moshe's case is emphasized with the term 'Ispaklariah HaMeirah'. Other prophets who receive on that level but lower than Moshe are described with the term 'Chozeh'. To help you, I have also included the quotation from the Tikkunei Zohar which says that "Nevuah via vision" is "Chazon".

Feb 27, 2017 at 19:05 comment added Double AA You discuss two words (Navi and Chozeh) and two levels of prophecy (Zeh and Koh) but I don't see anything here that explicitly defines those in terms of each other (mevaqesh noted that none of your sources appear to mention the root חזה). What source explicitly defines Chozeh with Zeh, and defines Navi as the generic term? Is that just your own idea?

The question post accidentally included the title of a question about David within its text, but that's not actually part of the question here.

Feb 27, 2017 at 15:24 comment added mevaqesh I am not seeing an answer to the OP's question in Zohar, parshat Pekudai, 248:a. I might be missing it. Mind quoting some of the relevant text?

Feb 27, 2017 at 13:55 comment added mevaqesh Rabbenu Bahya does not seem to answer the OP's question. He does not discuss the term חזה at all.
