About that time Jesus came from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to the place where John was. John baptized Jesus in the Jordan River.
He went to a town called Nazareth and lived there. This gave full meaning to what God said through the prophets. God said the Messiah would be called a Nazarene.
I baptize you with water, but the one who is coming will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw the sky torn open. The Spirit came down on him like a dove.
Jesus went with them to Nazareth and obeyed them. His mother was still thinking about all these things.
