When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. Right afterwards, as he was praying, heaven was opened,
But Jesus often went away to be by himself and pray.
Once the crowd was gone, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was still up there alone.
One day when Jesus was praying alone and only his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”
Then he said to the disciples, “Truly I tell you, you will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending’ on the Son of Man.”
I mean starting from when John began baptizing right through to when Jesus was taken up from us. The one we choose must be a witness with us that Jesus rose from the dead.”
