Table of prophets of Abrahamic religions

This is a table containing prophets of the modern Abrahamic religions.

"NOTE: In Judaism the classification of some people as prophets includes those who are not explicitly called so in the Hebrew Bible. Judaism also uses religious texts other than the Hebrew Bible to define prophets. Moreover, Orthodox Jewish rabbis use different criteria for classifying someone as a prophet, e.g. Enoch is not considered a prophet in Judaism. The New Testament may call someone a prophet even though they are not so classified in the Hebrew Bible; for example, Abel, Daniel, Enoch, and John the Baptist are described in the New Testament as prophets."
