• The great prophet – Christ Himself. It is one of those striking sketches which the Spirit of God intersperses throughout scripture....Thus plainly we have the true prophet put forward, Christ Himself. For its application to Him, in the face of all the unbelief of men, is affirmed by the Holy Spirit over and over, by Peter in Acts 3:22, and by Stephen in Acts 7:37; and in point of fact we do not even need these citations of the passage. The entire New Testament is itself the irrefragable demonstration that Christ is the prophet here referred to, and of the consequent folly and sin of listening to another.
