Notes on this text (3)

1 Y en aquellos días vino Juan el Bautista predicando en el desierto de la Judéa, 2 Y diciendo: Haced penitencia, porque se ha acercado el reyno de los cielos. 3 Pues éste es, de quien habló el Propheta Isaías, diciendo: Voz del que clama en el desierto: Aparejad el camino del Señor: haced derechas sus veredas. 4 Y el mismo Juan tenia un vestido de pelos de camellos, y un ceñidor de cuero al rededor de sus lomos: y su comida eran langostas y miel silvestre. 5 Entónces salia á él Jerusalém, y toda la Judéa, y toda la tierra de la comarca del Jordan; 6 Y eran bautizados por él en el Jordan, confesando sus pecados. 7 Mas viendo, que muchos de los Phariséos, y de los Sadducéos venían á su Bautismo, les dixo: Raza de víboras, ¿quién os ha enseñado á huir de la ira venidera? 8 Haced pues fruto digno de penitencia. 9 Y no querais decir dentro de vosotros: á Abraham tenemos por padre, porque os digo, que poderoso es Dios para levantar hijos á Abraham de éstas piedras. 10 Porque ya está puesta la segur á la raíz de los árboles. Pues todo árbol, que no hace buen fruto, cortado será, y echado en el fuego. 11 Yo en verdad os bautizo en agua para penitencia: mas el que ha de venir en pos de mi, mas fuerte es que yo, cuyo calzado no soy digno de llevar: él os bautizará en Espíritu Santo, y en fuego. 12 Su bieldo en su mano está: y limpiará bien su era: y recogerá su trigo en el granero; mas quemará las pajas en fuego, que no se podrá apagar jamas. 13 Entónces vino Jesús de la Galiléa al Jordan á Juan, para ser bautizado por él. 14 Mas Juan se lo estorbaba, diciendo: Yo debo ser bautizado por ti, ¿y tú vienes á mí? 15 Y respondiendo Jesús, le dixo: Dexa ahora, porque así nos conviene cumplir toda justicia. Entonces le dexó. 16 Y después que Jesús fué bautizado, subió luego del agua. Y he aquí se le abrieron los cielos, y vió al Espíritu de Dios, que descendia como paloma, y que venia sobre él. 17 Y he aquí una voz de los cielos que decía: Este es mi Hijo el Amado, en quien me he complacido.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

    How "in those days"? For not then, surely, when He was a child, and came to Nazareth, but thirty years after, John cometh; as Luke also testifies. How then is it said, "in those days"?

    For Thou correctest man for iniquity, and "Thy judgments are a great deep." But because Thy Spirit was "borne over the waters," Thy mercy forsook not our misery, and Thou saidst, "Let there be light," "Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Repent ye, let there be light.
