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 Baptist came, proclaiming in the wilderness of Judea, saying,

in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness.

John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came, and were baptized.

that spoken word you yourselves know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

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

He said, "Into what then were you baptized?" They said, "Into John's baptism."

Now why do you wait? Arise, be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'
