The .iij. Chap. ¶ The baptisme, preaching and offyce of Iohan, and howe Christ was baptysed of him in Iordaine. &cross2;

A    noteIn those dayes Iohn þe; Baptist came and preached in þe;05Q1115 wyldernes of Iury saying. Repent the kingdome of heauen is at hande. This is he of wh&obar;it is spoken by the prophete Esaye which sayeth: The voice of a cryer in wildernes prepare the Lordes way and make his pathes, strayt.

B   This Ihon had his garmente of Camels hear ∧ a girdel of a skinne about his loynes. His meate was05Q1116 locustes, ∧ wilde honye. Then went out to him Ierusalem ∧ all Iurye, ∧ all the region rounde about Iordan, ∧ were baptised of him in Iord&ebar;, c&obar;fessing their sinnes. &cross3;

&cross2; Wh&ebar; he sawe many of the Phariseis ∧ of the Saduces come to his baptisme, he sayd vnto them: O generacion of05Q1117 vipers, who hath taught you to fle from the vengaunce to come? noteBringe forth therfore the frutes belonging to repentaunce. C   And se that ye once thinke not to saye in your selues, we haue Abrah&abar; to our father. For I say vnto you, that God is able of these stones rayse vp children vnto Abraham. Euen now is the axe put vnto þe; rote of the trees: so þt; euerye tre which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hew&ebar; do&ubar; ∧ cast into þe; fire.

noteI baptise you in water in token of repentaunce, but he that cometh after me is mightyer then I, whose shues I am not worthy to beare. He shal baptise you with the holy ghost and with fyre: which hath also his fan in hys hande, note and will purge his floure gather the05Q1118 wheat into his garner, D   ∧ wyl burne the chaffe with vnquenciable fyre. note &cross3;

&cross2; Then came Iesus fr&obar; Galylee to Iordane, vnto Ihon to be baptysed of him. But Ih&obar; forbad him sayinge: I oughte to be baptysed of the: and commest thou to me? Iesus answered and sayd to hym: Let it be so nowe. For thus it becometh vs to fulfyll.05Q1119 al righteousnes. Then he suffred him. And Iesus as sone as he was baptysed came straight out of the water. And lo heauen was open ouer him: and Ihon sawe the spirite of God descende like a doue, and light vpon him. And lo ther came a voice from heauen sayinge. This is my beloued sonne in whom is my delyte. &cross3;
