Why didn't Dumbledore just let Voldemort have the prophecy?

Best Answers

I often ask myself the same question, and so far I have only came up with one reasonable explanation. (Although someone said it could have been to lure out Voldemort into revealing himself. Great answer Sheryl). read more

I believe Dumbledore was buying time. He knew the prophecy was essentially useless, but Voldemort thought it contained the secret to him defeating Harry. As long as Voldemort didn't have the prophecy it helped keep up Harry's veil of invincibility, and more importantly it prevented Voldemort from moving forward in his plans. read more

So anyways they would never listen to or help Dumbledore. Do you think it would be possible for him to convince Fudge that Harry's life is in danger, or Voldemort is after the prophecy. Certainly not . We saw he didn't succeed. Fudge was scared . He didn't want to believe it . He was cooperating with the likes of Lucius Malfoy. read more
