📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century AD, John the Baptist was a prophet sent by God to prepare the way for Jesus Christ, as foretold in the Old Testament prophecies like those in Isaiah. He baptized people in the Jordan River as a symbol of repentance, drawing crowds from Israel to announce the coming Messiah. In this verse, John explains that he did not initially recognize Jesus' full divine identity but was carrying out his God-given role to reveal Him through baptism.
