'Prophets' in the Bible

Then he went and settled in a town called Nazareth to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets, that He will be called a Nazarene.

Be glad and rejoice, because your reward is great in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

“Don’t assume that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

Therefore, whatever you want others to do for you, do also the same for them—this is the Law and the Prophets.

“Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravaging wolves.

For all the prophets and the Law prophesied until John;

For I assure you: Many prophets and righteous people longed to see the things you see yet didn’t see them; to hear the things you hear yet didn’t hear them.

And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.”

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous,

and you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we wouldn’t have taken part with them in shedding the prophets’ blood.’

You, therefore, testify against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets.

This is why I am sending you prophets, sages, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and hound from town to town.

“Jerusalem, Jerusalem! She who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, yet you were not willing!

Many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.

False messiahs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
