Matthew 16:14

John the Baptist was known for his proclamation of the kingdom of heaven (Matt. 3:2). Elijah was known for his miraculous works and prophetic statements (1 Kings 17-18, 21; 2 Kings 1-2). The prophet Jeremiah was known for his compassion and concern for God’s people (Jer. & Lam.). Why did the people say Jesus was one of those men?
