Mark 1:2

[Azad]

Mark 1:2 as it is written in Isaiah the prophet, Behold, *I* send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way.

Where does it say that in Isaiah couldn't find it anywere..

I did find domething similar in Mal. 3:1

Hi there!



Some of the old manuscripts identify the source. The Old Latin Vulgate and Syrian text carry an additional comment, "as it is written by the prophet Isaiah" as do some of the Greek sources, but not all manuscripts carry the Isaiah citation.

Isaiah 40:3
The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

[CeCe]

Most of my Bibles read "the prophets". The NASB uses "Isaiah".

Malachi 3:1 "matches up" with with Mark 1:2, and Isaiah 40:3 with Mark 1:3.
