Explanation

Jainism recognizes 24 Tirthankaras (spiritual teachers and enlightened beings) in each cosmic time cycle. These great teachers include figures like Rishabhanatha (the first) and Mahavira (the 24th and most recent). Sikhism has 10 human Gurus starting with Guru Nanak, Judaism has prophets but not a fixed number of 'great teachers' in this doctrinal sense, and Zoroastrianism (Parsis) focuses on Zarathustra as the primary prophet.
