3:13 Yeshua gets immersed in the river

(Mark 1:9-11; Luke 3:21-22)

13 Then Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) came down from Galil to Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) at the Yarden (Jordan) River to be immersed by him. 14 But Yohan refused, saying, “It’s me who needs to be immersed by you, and yet you’re coming to me?”

15 “Just allow it,” answered Yeshua, “because we need to do what righteousness requires.” So Yohan immersed him.

16 As Yeshua came up out of the water after being immersed, the sky was opened up and he saw God’s spirit coming down like a dove and landing on him. 17 Then, wow, a voice could be heard from the sky saying, “This is my son that I love and I’m pleased with.”[ref]
