The books of Jeremiah and Ezekiel contain the majority of the
biblical accounts of prophetic sign-actions. By analysing these two
prophets' actions according to the terms and concepts used in
studies of nonverbal communication and rhetoric, this work seeks to
bring conceptual and terminological clarity to the discussion of
prophetic sign-acts and to enhance the perception of the prophets
as persuasive communicators. Rather than prophetic sign-acts being
viewed as having a magical derivation or as being inherently
efficacious in bringing about what they portray, the sign-acts are
viewed as being primarily forms of nonverbal communication whose
purpose was to have a persuasive impact upon spectators.
