Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.

and said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."

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, saying, "Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"

Others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is the Prophet, or like one of the prophets."

Therefore many from the crowd, when they heard this saying, said, "Truly this is the Prophet."

They said to the blind man again, "What do you say about Him because He opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."
