Matthew 17:10-13 The disciples, meanwhile, were asking questions.

Question in the Bible

"Why do the religion scholars say that Elijah has to come first?"

Answer in the Bible

Jesus answered, "Elijah does come and get everything ready.

I'm telling you, Elijah has already come but they didn't know him when they saw him. They treated him like dirt, the same way they are about to treat the Son of Man."

That's when the disciples realized that all along he had been talking about John the Baptizer.

Malachi 4:5-6 "But also look ahead: I'm sending Elijah the prophet to clear the way for the Big Day of GOD--the decisive Judgment Day!

He will convince parents to look after the children and children to look up to their parents. If they refuse, I'll come and put the land under a curse."

Matthew 11:11-15 "Let me tell you whats's going on here. No one in history surpasses John the Baptizer; but in the kingdom he prepared you for, the lowliest person is ahead of him.

For a long time now people have tried to force themselves into God's kingdom.

But if you read the books of the Prophets and God's Law closely, you will see them culminate in John, teaming up with him in preparing the way for the Messiah of the kingdom.

Looked at in this way, John is the 'Elijah'  you've all been expecting to arrive and introduce the Messiah.

"Are you listening to me? Really listening?
