From the Torah, "Deuteronomy 18:15, “For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen to everything he tells you.’”"
It's up to us to examine ALL of the evidence; the decision of what to believe is for the individual.
mmm...
Les read the verses subsequent to the one you cite (even though Rood, not a Jew, can’t be a “brother”):
20. But the prophet who intentionally speaks a word in My name, which I did not command him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet shall die.
21. Now if you say to yourself, “How will we know the word that the Lord did not speak?”
22. If the prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, and the thing does not occur and does not come about, that is the thing the Lord did not speak. The prophet has spoken it wantonly; you shall not be afraid of him.
And what else do we know about what should happen to false prophets, hmm?
I am perfectly content being a born AND practicing Jew. I am not shopping for a new religion or new elements to add to my religion. It is 100% complete as it is. So I leave it to YOU to examine the nefarious “evidence” offered by Mr. Rood cultist proselytizer fake-a-rooie. I wouldn’t spare a nanosecond to bother.
