translationNotes

  • This begins the account of how Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist.
  • **I need to be baptized by you ** - "I" refers to John the Baptist and "you" refers to Jesus Christ.
  • do you come to me? - This is a rhetorical question. Alternative translation: "Since you are not a sinner, you should not come to me and have me baptize you." Note that "you" refers to Jesus Christ and "me" refers to John the Baptist. (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion)
