15 ¶ The Lord thy God will ^araise up unto thee a ^bProphet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;

  22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A ^aprophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

  40 In addition to these, he quoted the eleventh chapter of ^aIsaiah, saying that it was about to be fulfilled. He quoted also the third chapter of Acts, twenty-second and twenty-third verses, precisely as they stand in our New Testament. He said that that ^bprophet was Christ; but the day had not yet come when “they who would not hear his voice should be ^ccut off from among the people,” but soon would come.
