Message definition (Why is false prophecy a death penalty crime?)
The definition of a (Biblical) prophet is someone who claims to be speaking for YHWH. If this claim is true, those words carry ultimate authority. Therefore, putting false words in the mouth of YHWH is the ultimate misrepresentation. It is using YHWH's name in vain (Exod. 20:7).
