136 Prophecies about False Prophets in the Torah & Other Earlier Heavenly Books It is written in the Torah: If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them. (That is, he should desire that you obey the commandments of someone other than God or desire that you should follow him in things that are opposed to the Torah. ) Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, (that is, you should follow His commandments, and do not lis- ten to anyone else though he might be a philosopher or a wise man) and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him. And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death. See the Torah, Deuteronomy, chapter 13, verses 1 to 5. The explanation of this prophecy is that the prophet who tried to turn you away from following God and attempted to make you follow some other beliefs that were not from God Almighty
