41 Whoever welcomes a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet's reward; and whoever welcomes a righteous person in the name of a righteous person will receive the reward of the righteous;
So Jesus is equating the prophets with the righteous. Not hard to detect. But do you know the name of the righteous?
Could it be the same name as the prophets?
Follow me and learn their name. If you want their reward follow me.
"Keep the commandments of the Lord by walking in His ways and revering Him."
When people receive the prophets reward by receiving the Words of the prophet , praying through to God of these Words and waiting on the Lord for conformation that these Words are from God , and then believing in faith of these prophets Words will bring the prophets reward which is the grace and blessing from God .............Same is true with the righteous man who you receive as your brother in Christ , and would be a blessing of God to receive this man or woman of Christ...............So if you were to reject the prophet of Jesus and the righteous man of Jesus , then there would be no blessing from God as you rejected His prophet and Jesus righteous man who Jesus spirit abide on , as there are many Christians who have Jesus spirit abiding on them , and some who have Jesus gifts of prophecy on them could be rejected by people of other denominations as this rejection rejects Jesus

The righteous are prophets and the Holy serve the Lord.

I think you're trying to read too much into it. Read verse 40. He's saying if you welcome someone in his name, you're welcoming him. That's it. To ponder who is the righteous and who is the prophet is an exercise in missing the point.

So if He is righteous then what is that name?
So if you welcome someone in His name and you welcome Him is that person Him?

He's illustrating his first point. If you welcome someone in a prophet's name, or a righteous person in that person's name--you get what the prophet or the righteous person is bringing. It's hypothetical. We aren't supposed to sit and ponder who the righteous is, or the prophet. He's stating that the person coming in HIS name should be welcomed and the person that does receives Jesus.

Some see what is hidden some do not.
