When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

from his baptism by John to the time when he was caught up from us, must join us as a witness to his resurrection."

You know the story that has gone all over Judea, starting from Galilee after the baptism that John proclaimed,

"How then were you baptized?" he asked. "With John's baptism," they answered.

In those days John the Baptist appeared, and preached in the desert of Judea.

As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, "Here I send my messenger on before you; He will prepare your way;

"And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, For you will go before the Lord to make his way ready,

in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, a message from God came to Zechariah's son John in the desert.

There appeared a man by the name of John, with a message from God.

So a discussion arose between John's disciples and a man from Judea, about purification.

You yourselves sent to John, and he testified to the truth.
