In the Book of Revelation, the two witnesses are two prophets who are mentioned in Revelation 11:1-14. Some Christian eschatology interprets this as two people, two groups of people, or two concepts.

Others believe them to be Moses and Elijah because they appeared during the transfiguration of Jesus, or because Enoch was not Abraham's descendant. Some also believe that they are Moses and Elijah due to the description of what they are to do. They have the power to shut the heavens (Elijah) and turn water into blood (Moses).
