MARK 1:1–1:11 ©

The Mission of John the Baptist

The Mission of John the Baptist

(Isaiah 40:1–5, Matthew 3:1–17, Luke 3:1–22, John 1:19–34)

1[This is the] beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, [the] Son of God.[fn]

2As it is written in Isaiah the prophet:[fn] “Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You who will prepare Your way.”[fn]

3“A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for [the] Lord, make straight paths for Him.’ ”[fn]

4John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching [a] baptism of repentance for [the] forgiveness of sins. 5[People] went out to him from all of Jerusalem and the countryside of Judea. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.

6John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. 7And he proclaimed “After me will come One more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down [and] untie. 8I baptize you with water,[fn] but He will baptize you with [the] Holy Spirit.[fn]

9In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10As soon [as Jesus] came up out of the water, He saw[fn] the heavens breaking open and the Spirit descending on Him like a dove. 11And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
