Matthew 3:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 3:5

3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying:
^a“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
^b‘Prepare the way of the Lord;
Make His paths straight.’ ”

4 Now ^aJohn himself was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist; and his food was ^blocusts and ^cwild honey.

5 ^aThen Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him

6 ^aand were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, ^a“Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from ^bthe wrath to come?
