What is the difference between the prophet and the messenger?

The prophet is the one who received divine revelation but was not sent with a message or a new methodology. The messenger, on the other hand, is the one sent by Allah with a methodology and legislation that suit his people. Examples include the Torah revealed to Prophet Moses, the Gospel revealed to Jesus, the Qur’an revealed to Prophet Muhammad, the Scriptures of Abraham, and the Psalms of Prophet David.
