9\u00a0<\/sup>It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

10\u00a0<\/sup>And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

11\u00a0<\/sup>Then a voice came from heaven, \u201cYou are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

Also found in Matthew 3:13-17<\/a><\/span> and Luke 3:21-23.<\/h3>\n

parting (v.10) = cleaved asunder, divided by rending.<\/h3>\n

upon (v.10) = lit. “into”<\/h3>\n

This was the act of the Holy Spirit taking up His residence in the Messiah. This was the anointing with the Spirit for His three-fold ministry of Prophet, Priest, and King, the dynamic equipment which would enable the Messiah to discharge the duties connected with these offices (Luke 4:16-19). \u2014 Wuest, page 23.<\/span><\/h3>\n

like a dove (v.10) \u2014 Luke 3:22 adds the detail that “…the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form<\/em> like a dove …”<\/h3>\n

The form assumed by the Spirit, “like a dove” may be related to Genesis 1:2<\/span><\/a>, which pictures Him hovering over the waters, as a hen resides on her nest. \u2014 KJBC, page 1238.<\/span><\/h3>\n

All three members of the Trinity. The Son was baptized. The Spirit descended. The Father spoke from heaven.<\/h3>\n

you (v.11) \u2014 [The form of the word indicates,] “As for you, in contradistinction to all others.” Messiah is the unique Son of God. Believers are sons of God, but they sustain a different relationship to the Father than the Son does. Messiah claimed to be the Son of God in a unique way, for He said that God was His own private, personal unique Father (His, not the personal pronoun of the third person (autos<\/em>), but idios<\/em>, the latter word speaking of what is one’s own, private, unique, absolute possession (John 5:18<\/span><\/a>). The order of the Greek words are, “as for you, you are my Son, the beloved One.” Here, equal emphasis is laid upon the fact that Messiah is the Son of God, and that He is the beloved Son. the particular word for “love” here is agape<\/em> which in the classics spoke of a love called out of one’s heart by the preciousness of the object loved. The Son of God is infinitely precious to God the Father. This love is called out of the Father’s heart by the preciousness of the Son. \u2014 Wuest, page 24.<\/span><\/h3>\n

well-pleased (v.11) \u2014 with the idea of delight, pleasure, satisfaction. The tense includes the past. The Father has always been well-pleased with the Son and is well-pleased now. His “well-pleasedness” never had a beginning and will never have an end.<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
