For the first time since Matthew 1:1 there are clear links with the Gospel of Mark. Many scholars are certain a good portion of this chapter is a reworking of Mark 1. The chapter also parallels Luke 3, also believed to be based on Mark 1. A number of passages shared by Luke and Matthew, but not found in Mark, are commonly ascribed to Q, although this theory is less popular now than it once was.

  • For the first time since Matthew 1:1 there are clear links with the Gospel of Mark. Many scholars are certain a good portion of this chapter is a reworking of Mark 1. The chapter also parallels Luke 3, also believed to be based on Mark 1. A number of passages shared by Luke and Matthew, but not found in Mark, are commonly ascribed to Q, although this theory is less popular now than it once was. The chapter opens with a portrait of John the Baptist. It describes his preaching, clothing, and diet. It presents him as a preacher in the wilderness prophesizing about the "wrath to come." The chapter then moves to a tirade, ascribed to John, against the Pharisees and Sadducees in which he warns them to repent. This includes the famous "generation of vipers" line at Matthew 3:7. Jesus then arrives from Galilee to be baptized. The chapter closes with the baptism of Jesus, the voice of the Father, and the appearance of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove.
