A Prophet Like Moses
Deuteronomy 18:15-19.
"15 The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto Him ye shall hearken;
16 according to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this Great Fire any more, that I die not.
17 And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put My Words in His mouth; and He shall speak unto them all that I shall command Him.
19 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto My Words which He shall speak in My Name, I will require it of him"
(Deuteronomy 18:15-19). Just as the Messiah is both a Priest and King, He only is Prophet-Priest-and-King. Is it any wonder that Jesus received an entrance into Jerusalem befitting the Messiah?
"8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is He that cometh in the Name of the LORD; Hosanna in the highest.
10 And when He was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee"
(Matthew 21:8-11). Continuing this unfolding revelation of the Messiah, He would be a Prophet like Moses.
