Jesus’ cousin John (Elizabeth’s son) became known as John the Baptist. He was assigned to prepare the way for Jesus. He baptized with water.

In verse 13 it says, “The Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.”

John didn’t want to do it at first. He felt that Jesus should be the one baptizing him. Jesus explained why it was necessary and John consented.

After Jesus was baptized, “heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him.” A powerful image.
