Luke 3

In the fifteenth year of Tiberius Caesar, Ioannes (John) the Baptist preaches repentance and baptism for forgiveness of sins in the wilderness, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy as the voice crying out to prepare the way of the Lord. Jesus is baptized, the Holy Spirit descends upon him like a dove, and a voice from heaven declares him the beloved Son, followed by his temptation by the devil in the wilderness for forty days.
