RE: How would the rabbis welcome a jewish prophet girl ?
Closest thing to it was probably Jeanne D'arc that led the french revolution and claimed to be guided by angels and stuff.

Jeanne D'Arc has been overused politically.
The real history (without all posterior alterations, political recuperations leading to the rewriting of her story) might be a bit more modest (if there's only a single notable fact remaining).
And yes that was during the "Guerre de Cent Ans" - Hundred Years War (1337 - 1453 but it wasn't a non-stop war, be reassured) - a Civil War in France opposing les Valois (French) and les Plantagenêt (British-backed) but it was essentially during the Revolution and the Prussian Wars that her image was used.
And for your question @sweecee, I think she'll be welcomed with insults and stones :D But even a male prophet would finish the living in the streets, everybody thinking he's a madman.
hmmm... I don't know... more a high test girl who decided to fight what ever the men said... I think she was a shepard or some kind of outdoor activity, and she took arms... doesn't fit at all the profile.
and it wasn't the revolution, way earlier... my history fails me, but I think it was in relation with the northern islands... a certain britany :).
