2.033. Jesus Baptizing and Preaching

PREPARATORY PREACHING JESUS BAPTIZING AND PREACHING.

After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized (although Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples). And John also was baptizing in AEnon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. For John was not yet cast into prison. And Jesus himself, when he began to teach, was about thirty years of age.
