Contextual Overview

1 This is the beginning of the Good News about Jesus Christ, the Son of God, 2 as the prophet Isaiah wrote: "I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way." Malachi 3:1 3 "This is a voice of one who calls out in the desert: ‘Prepare the way for the Lord. Make the road straight for him.'" Isaiah 40:3 4 John was baptizing people in the desert and preaching a baptism of changed hearts and lives for the forgiveness of sins. 5 All the people from Judea and Jerusalem were going out to him. They confessed their sins and were baptized by him in the Jordan River. 6 John wore clothes made from camel's hair, had a leather belt around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. 7 This is what John preached to the people: "There is one coming after me who is greater than I; I am not good enough even to kneel down and untie his sandals. 8 I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I indeed have baptized you with water,.... This was spoken to the baptized persons, partly to take off their dependence upon him and his baptism; and partly to direct their views to Christ, from whom the gifts and graces of the Spirit are alone to be had:

but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost;

:-. One copy adds, "and with fire", as there: a Jewish writer says, the holy blessed God baptizeth with fire, and the wise shall understand p.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 3:3, Matthew 3:5-6, Matthew 3:11.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Mark 1:8. I indeed have baptized you with water — As if he had said: This baptism is not to be rested in; it is only an emblem of that which you must receive from him who is mightier than I. It is he only who can communicate the Holy Spirit; and water baptism is nothing, but as it points out, and leads to, the baptism of the Holy Ghost. The subject of these two verses is not found in Matthew nor John; but is mentioned with some varying circumstances by Luke, Luke 3:16.
