Commentary on Deuteronomy 18:21

Theological / Devotional

How shall we know? The proof of a prophet’s credentials lies, in part, in the fulfillment of his predictions. Note how this was found true of Samuel (1 Sam. 3:18-21).

The Jews had a tendency to rely on signs and wonders (John 2:18; 1 Cor. 1:22), and against this the Lord warned them (Deut. 13:1, 2).
