Matthew 3:4

⁸They answered him, “He was a hairy man, and wearing a leather belt around his waist.” He said, “It’s Elijah the Tishbite.”

⁶John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.

⁴It will happen in that day that the prophets will each be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; they won’t wear a hairy mantle to deceive,

⁸But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.

²²Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.

⁵Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes.

¹⁷He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to prepare a people prepared for the Lord.”

¹³He made him ride on the high places of the earth. He ate the increase of the field. He caused him to suck honey out of the rock, oil out of the flinty rock;

¹⁸For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’

²⁵All the people came into the forest; and there was honey on the ground. ²⁶When the people had come to the forest, behold, honey was dripping, but no one put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath. ²⁷But Jonathan didn’t hear when his father commanded the people with the oath. Therefore he put out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes brightened.
