Preview draft (option two, revised). Labels follow common traditional listings and will be checked against sources before publishing. Samaritans accept only the Torah and count Moses as the one prophet. Mandaeans honor Adam, Seth, Enosh, Noah, Shem, and John the Baptist, and reject Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Some identifications are debated, such as Idris with Enoch.
