Mark 1:6
Mark 1:6 John was clothed with camel's hair. See PNT "Mt 3:4".
4 aJohn came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance1 for the remission of sins.
5 aThen all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Now John was aclothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 And he preached, saying, a“There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
8 aI indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you bwith the Holy Spirit.”
John Baptizes Jesus
9 aIt came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 aAnd immediately, coming up1 from the water, He saw the heavens2 parting and the Spirit bdescending upon Him like a dove.
11 Then a voice came from heaven, a“You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Satan Tempts Jesus
12 aImmediately the Spirit1 drove Him into the wilderness.
13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; aand the angels ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry
14 aNow after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, bpreaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 and saying, a“The time is fulfilled, and bthe kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples
