Deuteronomy 18:15
15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you—from your fellow Israelites; ▼▼tc The MT expands here on the usual formula by adding “from among you” (cf. Deut 17:15; 18:18; Smr; a number of Greek texts). The expansion seems to be for the purpose of emphasis, i.e., the prophet to come must be not just from Israel but an Israelite by blood.
▼ you must listen to him.
