JOHN—NOTE ON John 6:14 the Prophet. The people think Jesus fulfills the prediction of the prophet like Moses, promised in Deuteronomy 18:15, Deuteronomy 18:18. (See note on John 1:20–21; compare Acts 3:22.) In Acts 3:22 Peter identifies Jesus as the fulfillment of this prophecy; compare Acts 7:37. However, “prophet” is not a common title for Jesus; it is used primarily by those who know little about him (e.g., Matthew 16:14; John 4:19).
