This quote implies that the interpretation and analysis of prophecies is often given greater significance than the actual act of prophesying itself. It suggests that the individual who explains and deciphers prophecies holds more value and influence in society, as their interpretations shape beliefs and actions. This emphasizes the power of perception and the role of those who have the ability to provide insight into the future, potentially overshadowing the original prophet's significance.
