“And this is the record to John (i.e., the Baptist) when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? “And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. “And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that Prophet? And he answered, No.” (John,1:19-21). This talk clearly shows that just before the advent of Prophet Isa (a.s.) (Jesus Christ), the Jews were waiting for three Prophets: Christ, Elias and that Prophet. And when John said that he was none of the three, then: “And they asked him, and said unto him, why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that Prophet?” (John, 1:25) It also shows that that Prophet commanded such a high respect that his name was not uttered and his adjective Prophet is written with a capital P. And his advent was so well-understood that simply addressing him as that Prophet was enough to know him.” Inspired By Imam Hussain ©
