| he wrote of me--"an important testimony to the subject of the whole Pentateuch--'of Me'" [ALFORD]. |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| He wrote of me - Every where; in all his writings; particularly Deu 18:15, Deu 18:18. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
| He wrote of me - For instance, in reciting the prophecy of Jacob, Gen 49:10. The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be. And in Deu 18:18 : I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren like unto thee; and I will put my words in his mouth, etc. Confer this with Act 3:22, and Act 7:37. Besides, Moses pointed out the Messiah in a multitude of symbols and figures, which are found in the history of the patriarchs, the ceremonial laws, and especially in the whole sacrificial system. All these were well-defined, though shadowy representations of the birth, life, sufferings, death, and resurrection of the Savior of the world. Add to this, Moses has given you certain marks to distinguish the false from the true prophet, Deu 13:1-3; Deu 18:22, which, if you apply to me, you will find that I am not a false but a true prophet of the Most High God. |
18 I will raise them up [06965] a Prophet [05030] from among [07130] their brethren [0251], like unto thee, and will put [05414] my words [01697] in his mouth [06310]; and he shall speak [01696] unto them all that I shall command [06680] him.
15 The LORD [03068] thy God [0430] will raise up [06965] unto thee a Prophet [05030] from the midst [07130] of thee, of thy brethren [0251], like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken [08085];
22 When a prophet [05030] speaketh [01696] in the name [08034] of the LORD [03068], if the thing [01697] follow not, nor come to pass [0935], that is the thing [01697] which the LORD [03068] hath not spoken [01696], but the prophet [05030] hath spoken [01696] it presumptuously [02087]: thou shalt not be afraid [01481] of him.
1 If there arise [06965] among [07130] you a prophet [05030], or a dreamer [02492] of dreams [02472], and giveth [05414] thee a sign [0226] or a wonder [04159],
2 And the sign [0226] or the wonder [04159] come to pass [0935], whereof he spake [01696] unto thee, saying [0559], Let us go [03212] after [0310] other [0312] gods [0430], which thou hast not known [03045], and let us serve [05647] them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken [08085] unto the words [01697] of that prophet [05030], or that dreamer [02492] of dreams [02472]: for the LORD [03068] your God [0430] proveth [05254] you, to know [03045] whether ye [03426] love [0157] the LORD [03068] your God [0430] with all your heart [03824] and with all your soul [05315].
37 This [3778] is [2076] that Moses [3475], which [3588] said [2036] unto the children [5207] of Israel [2474], A prophet [4396] shall [450] the Lord [2962] your [5216] God [2316] raise up [450] unto you [5213] of [1537] your [5216] brethren [80], like [5613] unto me [1691]; him [846] shall ye hear [191].
22 For [1063] Moses [3475] truly [3303] said [2036] unto [4314] the fathers [3962], [3754] A prophet [4396] shall [450] the Lord [2962] your [5216] God [2316] raise up [450] unto you [5213] of [1537] your [5216] brethren [80], like [5613] unto me [1691]; him [846] shall ye hear [191] in [2596] all things [3956] whatsoever [3745] [302] he shall say [2980] unto [4314] you [5209].
