Luke 9:19

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

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

and he said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist, he has risen from the dead; that is why 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."

But others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old."

When they heard these words, some of the people said, "Surely this is the prophet."

So they again said to the blind man, "What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

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