Isaiah 40:3

"I," he answered, "am--'The voice of one crying aloud in the Wilderness--"straighten the way of the Lord"', as the Prophet Isaiah said."

It is said in the Prophet Isaiah--'Behold! I send my Messenger before thy face; He shall prepare thy way.'

About that time John the Baptist first appeared, proclaiming in the Wilderness of Judea:

And shall reconcile many of the Israelites to the Lord their God.

And thou, Child, shalt be called Prophet of the Most High, For thou shalt go before the Lord to make ready his way,

And when Annas and Caiaphas were High Priests, a Command from God came to John, the son of Zechariah, while he was in the wilderness.
