3. And he went into all the country round about the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance (of hearty amending of their ways, with abhorrence of past wrongdoings) unto the forgiveness of sin;

4. as it is written in the book of words of Isaiah the prophet: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, (shouting in the desert): 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make His beaten paths straight.'"

(Matthew 1:21-23)

21. She will bear a Son, and you shall call His Name Jesus (the Greek form of the Hebrew Joshua, which means Saviour), for He will save His people from their sins, (that is, prevent them from failing and missing the true end and scope of life, which is God).

22. All this took place that it might be fulfilled which the Lord had spoken through the prophet:

23. "Behold, the virgin shall become pregnant and give birth to a Son, and they shall call His Name Emmanuel - which, when translated, means: 'God with us.'"
