Chap. III.
Iohn Baptist by his Eremites life, by his preaching and baptisme, calleth al vnto penance, to
prepare them to Christ. 10. He preacheth to the Pharisees and Sadducces, threatening to
them (vnles they truly doe penance) reprobation here and damnation hereafter: and for
saluation sendeth them to Christ and his baptisme. Which being far more excellent then
Iohns, yet Christ him self among those penitents vouch safeth to come vnto Iohns baptisme.
Where he hath testimonie from heauen also.
1 noteAnd in those dayes note cometh Iohn the Baptist
preaching in the09Q0348 desert of Ievvrie,
2 & saying,
09Q0349 Doe penance: for the Kingdom of heauen is at
hand.
3 For this is he that vvas spoken of by Esay
the Prophet, saying, A voyce of one crying in the desert,
prepare ye the way of our Lord, make straight his pathes. note
4 And the sayd Iohn
had his garment of camels heare, & a girdle of a skinne about
his loynes: and his meate was locustes & vvilde honie.
5 Then vvent forth to him Hierusalem & al Ievvrie, and
al the countrey about Iordan:
6 & vvere baptized of him in
Iordan,09Q0350 confessing their sinnes.
7 And seeing many of the
Pharisees & Sadducées coming to his baptisme, he sayd to
them.
7 Ye vipers brood, vvho hath shevved you to flee from the
vvrath to come?
8 Yeld therfore09Q0351 fruite vvorthie of penance.
9 And delite not to say vvithin your selues, vve haue Abraham
to our father. for I tel you that God is able of these
stones to raise vp children to Abraham.
10 For novv the09Q0352 axe
is put to the roote of the trees. Euery tree therefore that doth
note not yeld good fruite, shal be cut dovvne, & cast into the fyre.
11 note noteI in deede baptize you09Q0353 in vvater vnto penance. but he
that shal come after me, is stronger then I, vvhose shoes I am
not vvorthie to beare, he shal baptize you in the Holy Ghost
-- --
& fire.
12 Whose fanne is in his hand, and he shal cleane purge
his09Q0354 floore: and he vvil gather his vvheate into the barne, but
the chaffe he vvil burne vvith vnquencheable fire.
13 Then cometh Iesvs from Galilee to Iordan, vnto Iohn,
to be baptized of him.
14 But Iohn stayed him, saying, I ought
to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
15 And Iesvs
ansvvering, sayd to him, Suffer me for this time. for so it becommeth
vs to fulfil al iustice. Then he suffered him.
16 And
Iesvs being baptized, forthvvith came out of the vvater:
and loe the heauens vvere09Q0355 opened to him: and he savv the Spirit
of God descending as a doue, & coming vpon him.
17 And
behold a voyce from heauen saying, This is my beloued
sonne, in vvhom I am vvel pleased.
