Matthew 3:3 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 3:3

John the Baptist Prepares the Way

1 In those days ^aJohn the Baptist came preaching ^bin the wilderness of Judea,

2 and saying, “Repent, for ^athe kingdom of heaven is at hand!”

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
