Matthew 17:10

English Standard Version 2016

And the disciples asked him, “Then why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?”

See the chapter Copy

and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.

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

And they asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”

And they asked him, “Why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?”

And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

He answered, “Elijah does come, and he will restore all things.
