La Shekhinah è associata allo spirito trasformativo di Dio considerato come fonte di profezia:
The Shekinah is associated with the transformational spirit of God regarded as the source of prophecy:
{{quote biblico| Poi arriverai alla collina di Dio, dov'è la guarnigione dei Filistei; e là, giungendo alla città, incontrerai un gruppo di profeti che scenderanno dall'alto luogo, preceduti da un'arpa, un tamburello, un flauto e una cetra, e che profetizzeranno.<br/>
{{quote|After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they will be prophesying.
Allora lo Spirito del Signore ti investirà e profetizzerai con loro, e sarai cambiato in un altro uomo.|1Samuele|10:5-6}}
And the spirit of the LORD will come mightily upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.|{{bibleref2|1 Samuel|10:5–6|KJV}}}}
The prophets made numerous references to visions of the presence of God, particularly in the context of the Tabernacle or Temple, with figures such as thrones or robes filling the Sanctuary, which have traditionally been attributed to the presence of the Shekinah. [[Isaiah]] wrote "I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and his train filled the Temple." (Isaiah 6:1). [[Jeremiah]] implored "Do not dishonor the throne of your glory" ({{bibleref2|Jeremiah|14:21}}) and referred to "Thy throne of glory, on high from the beginning, Thy place of our sanctuary" ({{bibleref2|Jeremiah|17:12}}). The [[Book of Ezekiel]] speaks of "the glory of the God of Israel was there [in the Sanctuary], according to the vision that I saw in the plain." (Ezekiel 8:4){{fv|date=October 2014}}
