The Rambam gives rules for recognizing a true Novi
Based on pesukim in the Chumash.
The Chumash itself was dictated by Hashem to Moshe who wrote it down like a stenographer and taught it to the yidden.
But, when Moshe first appeared on the scene.these laws were not yet given. How did the yidden know at that time that Moshe was a true Novi and to believe him?

Doom and gloom vs. hope
I am not at all knowledgeable about prophets, not at all. But didn't some of the prophets predict doom and gloom? Wish I could give you specifics on why I'm thinking that, but seems in the haftorahs I've read (which I don't easily understand)m seems there were dire predictions, no?

Hashem changed His mind from the negative prediction of the Novi Yonah
This shows that indeed Hashem does and has changed, at least from our time bound earthly point of view.
Has Hashem ever told a Novi a positive thing will happen but changed His mind because the people later sinned?
