Prophet
A line about Elias has been changed to read :
a man known as Elias who had become famous as a prophet
The above seems to indicate the man was recognised as a 'prophet', such as Moses - it looks to controversial, which religion recognised him as such ? Is this a safe statement and can it be verified? The original text said the man was denounced by James Pilkington after claiming to have the gift of prophecy, the new wording states he was a prophet. --

I have reword the paragraph in keeping with the source, History of Rivington, Thomas Hampson, 1893, pg 26:
In early 1562, James Pilkington was in London where, in a sermon, he denounced a man known as Elias from the Bishops native region of Lancashire who had claimed to have foresight, famous during the reign of Queen Mary, to whom he is reputed to have spoken at Greenwich. The bishop produced the "Book of the Common Good" in defence of the Anglican church against the teachings of the Church of Rome --

No big deal on my part, I was merely attempting to decipher this, In part of his sermon he exposed a man who had claimed to have foresight and denounced him. The man was known as Elias, who had claimed to have prophecy, who's fame was most noted during the Reign of Queen Mary, to whom he is reputed to have spoke at Greenwich. The man from the Bishops native region of Lancashire, England. Hardly grammatical is it?--
