I'm not sure, so I'll leave that to the experts. What I wanted to point 
at is that the term {tuch rItwI'} should be seen more literally as a 
"future-teller" or a "predicter". I think it would seem strange that if 
you translate a bible verse and end up with "future-teller Jesus". To 
me, the "prophet" from a bible sounds a bit like a holy person sent by 
god or so, and that's absolutely unrelated to {tuch rItwI'}.

It may work, but I was only pointing that here, it's not really a 
religious term as described in wikipedia
