His student Elisha was also a spiritual counselor and even in one case brought a boy back to life and acted as a healer and counselor to the majority of the people. Ezra the prophet also provided spiritual guidance and instructions to the people.
During the period of the Mishnah, Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakai served as such a consultant and guided his students on many questions of faith through polemics. His advice was more intellectual and less emotional.
