Gospel text

In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar (...), the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the desert. He went throughout [the] whole region of the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
Gospel's Commentary
Today, the Gospel presents John the Baptist. It is important to know the time and place of activity of the Baptist. These are the same times and the same places in which Jesus, the Messiah, acted. God has truly become flesh!
— We prepare ourselves to celebrate the birth of Jesus: It took place in Bethlehem, near Jerusalem, at the same time as John.
