Introduction

Examples of OT Prophets

The prophets Jesus refer to provide power to provide and heal
They demonstrate that God does not only bless His chosen people

Key Points

Jesus Stands in the line of the prophet Isaiah

verses 18-19 shows some of what Jesus taking this role will mean

The Holy Bible: King James Version (Chapter 4)
prophet
In suggesting he is prophet, Jesus is making it clear that he’s acting as God’s spokesperson.
The “prophet” proclaimed the message given to him, as the “seer” beheld the vision of God. (See Num. 12:6, 8.) Thus a prophet was a spokesman for God; he spake in God’s name and by his authority (Ex. 7:1). He is the mouth by which God speaks to men (Jer. 1:9; Isa. 51:16), and hence what the prophet says is not of man but of God (2 Pet. 1:20, 21; comp. Heb. 3:7; Acts 4:25; 28:25).
Exodus 7:1 (AV)
And the LORD said unto Moses, See, I have made thee a god to Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall be thy prophet.
This word appears 47 times in the New Testament with its primary translation being preach.

Implications and Applications

Jesus changes everything

The KJV states liberty while the LEB version talks about sending people out in freedom.

The prophetic ministry of Jesus cannot be ignored
