'Prophets' in the Bible

And he came [and] lived in a town called Nazareth, in order that what was said by the prophets would be fulfilled: "He will be called a Nazarene."

Rejoice and be glad, because your reward [is] great in heaven, for in the [same] way they persecuted the prophets before you.

"Do not think that I have come to destroy the law or the prophets. I have not come to destroy [them] but to fulfill [them].

Therefore [in] all [things], whatever you want that people should do to you, thus also you do to them. For this is the law and the prophets.

"Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inside are ravenous wolves.

For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John,

For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous [people] longed to see what you see, and did not see [it], and to hear what you hear, and did not hear [it]!

And they said, {Some} [say] John the Baptist, but others Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets."

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees--hypocrites!--because you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the graves of the righteous,

and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in the blood of the prophets!'

Thus you testify against yourselves that you are descendants of those who murdered the prophets!

For this [reason], behold, I am sending to you prophets and wise men and scribes. [Some] of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and will pursue from town to town,

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How many times I wanted to gather your children together {the way} a hen gathers her young together under [her] wings, and you were not willing!

and many false prophets will appear and will deceive many,

For false messiahs and false prophets will appear, and will produce great signs and wonders in order to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

But all this has happened in order that the scriptures of the prophets would be fulfilled." Then the disciples all abandoned him [and] fled.
