Mark 1:4

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

And in those days John the immerser comes, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying,

in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God became in John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

And John also was immersing in Aenon near Salim because there was much water there. And they came and were immersed.

ye know, the word having occurred throughout the whole of Judea beginning from Galilee after the immersion that John preached--

John having earlier proclaimed, before his coming presence, the immersion of repentance to Israel.

And he said to them, Into what then were ye immersed? And they said, Into John's immersion.

And now what is it going to be? Having arisen, immerse and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
