Yea and all the prophets from Samuel and them that followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

'SAMUEL'-The next significant or well-known prophet following Moses. In addition, 'Schools of prophets arose in his time, few before him (1 Samuel 2:1).' (Robertson p. 47)

'THEY ALSO TOLD OF THESE DAYS'-The "days" in the context are the days in which God would raise up another Prophet. And God did that in the First Century!

'ALSO'-'suggests that the burden of the prophets was the same as that prediction given by Moses.' (Reese p. 169)

Point to Note:

'Dispensationalism, one of the modern systems of eschatology, says the church age is not predicted in the Old Testament. Dispensationalism, in this assertion, is exactly contrary to what Peter said by inspiration! Peter says that the events happening then (and that was the early part of the church age) were predicted in the Old Testament Prophets, in Moses, Samuel, and all his successors.' (Reese p. 169)
