Cross-References
In the beginning God created the sky and the earth.
The earth was empty and had no form. Darkness covered the ocean, and God's Spirit was moving over the water.
God named the light "day" and the darkness "night." Evening passed, and morning came. This was the first day.
Then God said, "Let there be something to divide the water in two."
God named the air "sky." Evening passed, and morning came. This was the second day.
Then God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered together so the dry land will appear." And it happened.
Then God said, "Let the earth produce plants—some to make grain for seeds and others to make fruits with seeds in them. Every seed will produce more of its own kind of plant." And it happened.
God blessed them and said, "Have many children and grow in number. Fill the earth and be its master. Rule over the fish in the sea and over the birds in the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."
God said, "Look, I have given you all the plants that have grain for seeds and all the trees whose fruits have seeds in them. They will be food for you.
God stretches the northern sky out over empty space and hangs the earth on nothing.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass in those days,.... Whilst John was preaching and baptizing in the wilderness, and had large crowds of people flocking to him, to see his person, hear his doctrine, and to be baptized by him; some for one thing, and some another;
Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee; the place where he had been brought up, and lived, and dwelt in from his infancy, to this time:
and was baptized of John in Jordan; which was the reason of his coming from Nazareth to him; see Matthew 3:13, where this is observed; and in some verses following, an account is given of what passed between Christ and John, on this occasion.
