Most believe Elijah and Moses. Others go with Enoch and Elijah as they both left the earth without ever tasting death.

It seems certain Elijah will be one of them (Malachi 4:5); I believe the second is most likely Moses. His appearance with Elijah during Jesus' Transfiguration demonstrates Moses was physically resurrected; this is the reason we have the cryptic comment in Jude 1:9 about Satan "contending" about the body of Moses -- we know from the Book of Revelation and elsewhere in Scripture that the "Old Testament saints" will be resurrected on "the last day." So although Satan objected, Moses was resurrected early as an exception -- probably so he could be one of the Two Witnesses.
I think Hebrews 11:5 makes it clear Enoch will not be one of the two witnesses. This scripture confirms Enoch "should not see death..." Since the Two Witnesses both see death and are then resurrected, this would nullify God's Word -- which cannot be done!

The two witnesses are the Old and New Testaments. Revv11:3 "... a thousand two hundred and three score days,..." That is 1260 days, and a prophetic day is one year (Num 14:34), then that would be 1260 YEARS, the exact time that the Catholic church ruled, from 538 when she assumed total control of the Eastern Roman Empire, until Napoleons general(I think his name was Bertheer, I doubt that is the correct spelling) captured the pope in 1798. The true people of God were persecuted unmercifully during this time, (people like the Waldensian, although they were by no means the only ones). The Bible was outlawed during this period, and the possession of one was a death sentence, even for those that only heard the word of God, except for those that were told what the scripture meant when they were told what they meant by a Catholic priest. I hope this answers your question. Ain't history great?

If you really study it, it is merely the Old and New Testaments. The book of the law, the Old testament or Moses, and the New Testament is deemed to be the return of Elijah as was addressed to Jesus as they asked if he were Elijah returned. You need to study it out to really see it but that is what it is.

the references i believe are to Elijah and Moses. The same two who came to converse with Jesus before he was betrayed by Judas.
