This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





For Moses truly said unto the fathers; their ancestors in the wilderness, Deu_18:15, as also in the Deu_18:18. St. Peter names here but one of their prophets, but a most remarkable one.



Like unto me;



1. In wisdom.

2. In miracles.

3. In being a Mediator between God and his people.

4. In their being both and of their brethren,

i.e. of the seed of Abraham.

5. In that they were both sent from God after an

extraordinary manner.



Him shall ye hear in all things; if any prophet did come amongst them, and did foretell future things which came to pass, or did work a real miracle, they were bound to believe him, if he did not endeavour to draw them to worship a false god; and by consequence they were bound to have believed our Saviour, who taught them only to fear that true God, whom the law and all the prophets had spoken of.
