Matthew 3:1-17 - The Baptism of Jesus - Part 2

In Matthew chapters 1 and 2 we were introduced to Promised Messiah:

1. His genealogy: Being of the ancestry and lineage of King David
2. His virgin birth: Conceived of the Holy Spirit
3. His visiting guests: The Wise Men, AKA King-Makers, of Persia
4. His miraculous deliverance from King Herod

Only Luke’s gospel records any events of Jesus’ childhood:

1. He astonished the spiritual leaders of Israel with the depth of his spiritual understanding and insight (Luke 2:41-48).
2. He had an awareness of God’s calling on his life (Luke 2:49)
3. He was obedient to his parents (Luke 2:51)
4. He grew: (Luke 2:52)
5. In wisdom and stature
6. In favor with God and men

Unlike Luke’s account, Matthew skips directly ahead 28 years to the start of Jesus’ ministry.
