‘This is John the Baptist,’ he told his servants. ‘He has been raised from the dead, and that’s why miraculous powers are at work in him.’
In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea
King Herod heard about it, because Jesus’s name had become well known. Some said, ‘John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that’s why miraculous powers are at work in him.’
But others said, ‘He’s Elijah.’ Still others said, ‘He’s a prophet, like one of the prophets from long ago.’
While he was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, ‘Who do the crowds say that I am? ’
‘But you,’ he asked them, ‘who do you say that I am? ’ Peter answered, ‘God’s Messiah.’
‘What then? ’ they asked him. ‘Are you Elijah? ’ ‘I am not,’ he said. ‘Are you the Prophet? ’ ‘No,’ he answered.
So they asked him, ‘Why then do you baptise if you aren’t the Messiah, or Elijah, or the Prophet? ’
When some from the crowd heard these words, they said, ‘This truly is the Prophet.’
Again they asked the blind man, ‘What do you say about him, since he opened your eyes? ’ ‘He’s a prophet,’ he said.
