Question: Which prophet foretold "a voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, "Prepare ye the way of the Lord?"?
Answer: Isaiah (40:3).
Comments: This passage from Isaiah is used by all four gospels writers to describe the mission of Jesus' forerunner, John the Baptist. (Matthew 3:3; Mark 1:3; Luke 3:4-6; John 1:23). In John's gospel, the prophecy is placed on the lips of John himself.
A voice is calling,
"Clear the way for the LORD in the wilderness;
Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God." (Isaiah 40:3, NASB)
