John 7:40

Yahweh your God will raise up to you a prophet from among you, of your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him.

If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.

Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”

and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets that he will be called a Nazarene.

and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”

They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”

When they sought to seize him, they feared the multitudes, because they considered him to be a prophet.

Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”

They asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”

Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”

She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”

and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”

He said to him, “Didn’t my heart go with you, when the man turned from his chariot to meet you? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and olive groves and vineyards, and sheep and cattle, and male servants and female servants?

One of his servants said, “No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom.”

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.

The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”

He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to prepare a people prepared for the Lord.”

They answered, “ ‘John the Baptizer,’ but others say, ‘Elijah,’ and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.”

They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”

This is that Moses, who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’

Let it be, when these signs have come to you, that you do what is appropriate for the occasion; for God is with you.

But they said, “Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.”

When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”

For they said, “Not during the feast, because there might be a riot among the people.”

and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him, and said, “You were also with the Nazarene, Jesus!”

and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can’t be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.’

He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.

Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in his name, observing his signs which he did.

When therefore the people saw the sign which Jesus did, they said, “This is truly the prophet who comes into the world.”

There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”

But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
