Jesus is the Promised Prophet

All the commentators agree that this verse, while potentially referring to a line of prophets, finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ. The warning to 'hearken' applies directly to His teachings. As Matthew Henry states, 'This prophet has come, even Jesus; He is He that should come, and we are to look for no other.'
