📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative, John the Baptist was preaching repentance and baptizing people in the Jordan River as a preparation for the Messiah, drawing from Jewish traditions of ritual cleansing. Jesus approached John for baptism to fulfill all righteousness, even though John initially hesitated, recognizing Jesus' superior role, which highlights Jesus' submission to God's plan as the start of His public ministry. This event connects to Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah's coming and underscores the importance of obedience in Jewish and early Christian contexts.
