Deuteronomy 18:15-18

A New Prophet like Moses

15 ^a“The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen— 16 just as you desired of the Lord your God at Horeb ^bon the day of the assembly, when you said, ^c‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God or see this great fire any more, lest I die.’ 17 And the Lord said to me, ^d‘They are right in what they have spoken. 18 ^eI will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. ^fAnd I will put my words in his mouth, and ^ghe shall speak to them all that I command him.

Matthew 11:9-11

9 What then did you go out to see? ^hA prophet? ^{▼▼Some manuscripts Why then did you go out? To see a prophet?} Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 10 This is he of whom it is written,

^j“‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face,
who will prepare your way before you.’
11 Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

Matthew 16:14

14 And they said, “Some say ^kJohn the Baptist, others say ^lElijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

John 1:25

25 They asked him, ^m“Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”

John 7:40

Division Among the People

40 When they heard these words, ⁿsome of the people said, “This really is ^othe Prophet.”
