Question
According to Biblical scholars Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel etc. were greatest prophets After Moses. Did G-d sent other prophets who were more greater than Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos etc. but are not recorded in the Tanach?
Answer
According to Talmudic tradition, the prophecies recorded in the Tanach are those necessary for future generations. There may have been other great prophets (without giving marks) but their prophecies were related only to their own generation.
