21. Jesus, baptized, receives testimony from heaven.
23. The age and genealogy of Jesus from Joseph upwards.














And all humanity
This phrase emphasizes the universal scope of God's plan for salvation. The Greek word used here is "πᾶσα σὰρξ" (pasa sarx), which literally translates to "all flesh." This indicates that the message of salvation is not limited to a specific ethnic group or nation but is intended for every person. Historically, this was a radical concept, as the Jewish people were accustomed to thinking of themselves as God's chosen people. The inclusion of "all humanity" underscores the breaking down of barriers and the opening of God's covenant to all people, fulfilling the promise made to Abraham that through his seed all nations would be blessed (Genesis 22:18).

will see
The Greek word for "see" is "ὄψεται" (opsetai), which implies more than just physical sight. It suggests a deeper understanding or realization. This seeing is not merely a passive observation but an active recognition and acceptance of God's work. In the context of the Gospel, it points to the revelation of Jesus Christ as the Messiah and the unfolding of God's redemptive plan. Historically, this seeing was fulfilled in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, which was witnessed by many and recorded in the Scriptures.

God’s salvation
The term "salvation" in Greek is "σωτηρία" (soteria), which encompasses deliverance, preservation, and safety. In the biblical context, it refers to the deliverance from sin and its consequences, brought about by Jesus Christ. The phrase "God’s salvation" highlights that this is not a human achievement but a divine gift. It is God's initiative and action, rooted in His love and mercy. Theologically, this salvation is both a present reality and a future hope, as believers experience the transformative power of the Gospel now and anticipate the fullness of salvation in the life to come. The historical context of this proclamation by John the Baptist, as he prepared the way for Jesus, underscores the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and the inauguration of a new covenant through Christ.

(6) The salvation of God.--The same word is used as in Luke 2:30, where see Note.

Verse 6. - And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. And when this preparation is complete, then shall Messiah publicly appear. And the Baptist faithfully performed his work as pioneer of the Christ. He awoke men's slumbering consciences; his note of alarm aroused through Palestine multitudes of men and women who afterwards, no doubt, formed the nucleus at least of the crowds who thronged round Jesus as he preached in the cities washed by the Lake of Galilee, or in the streets and temple courts of Jerusalem.
