Best Answer

There were five recognized in the Old Testament : Miriam, Micah 6:4; Deborah, Judges 4:4; Huldah, II Kings 22:14, and II Chronicles 34: 22-28; Noadiah, Nehemiah 6:14, and Isaiah's wife, Isaiah 8:3. For some reason her name was omitted. The New Testament recognize five prophetesses: Annah, Luke 2:36; Phillip's four [virgin] daughters, Acts 21:8-9, also unnamed. Other women were said to have prophesied, but were not considered as prophetesses were: Rachel, Genesis 30:24; Hannah, I Samuel 2:1-10, Abigail, I Samuel 25:29-31; Elizabeth, Luke 1:41-45; and Mary, the mother of Jesus, Luke 1:46-55.
