DefinitionShort: to employ water in a religious ceremony designed to symbolize purification and initiation on the basis of repentance{N:001}
Glosses: ['to baptize', 'baptism']
Comments: According to the Didache (early second century) different forms of baptism were practiced in the early church, but with evident preference given to immersion.|The baptism practiced by John the Baptist would seem to reflect far more the Jewish pattern of ritual washing than the type of baptism employed by Christians, which constituted a symbol of initiation into the Christian community on the basis of belief in and loyalty to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. There seems, however, to be no reason to employ a different expression for baptism in the case of John than in the case of the early Christians. Most translators actually employ a transliterated form of the Greek term βαπτίζω, but in some languages this is both awkward as well as inappropriate, especially if another term or expression has already been employed and is widely accepted by groups practicing various types or forms of baptism. In some languages, for example, one may employ an expression such as ‘to enter the water’ or ‘to undergo the ritual involving water.’ Such expressions do not necessarily imply the quantity of water nor the particular means by which water is applied.

DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: to be baptized with a baptism) to be overwhelmed by some difficult experience or ordeal
Glosses: ['to suffer', 'to undergo']
Comments: It is usually not possible to employ the general term for ‘baptism’ to indicate a difficult trial or ordeal. On the other hand, there may be a serious problem involved in using a technical term for ‘ordeal,’ since such an expression may imply merely a ‘proof of innocence.’ In a number of languages, therefore, one can best translate the idiom simply as ‘to suffer greatly.’
