DIE VORBEREITUNG DES WIRKENS JESU

Das Auftreten des Täufers

1 Es war im fünfzehnten Jahr der Regierung des Kaisers Tiberius; Pontius Pilatus war Statthalter von Judäa, Herodes Tetrarch von Galiläa, sein Bruder Philippus Tetrarch von Ituräa und der Trachonitis, Lysanias Tetrarch von Abilene;^[1] (Mt 27,11) 2 Hohepriester waren Hannas und Kajaphas. Da erging in der Wüste das Wort Gottes an Johannes, den Sohn des Zacharias. 3 Und er zog in die Gegend am Jordan und verkündete dort überall die Taufe der Umkehr zur Vergebung der Sünden, (Mt 3,1; Mk 1,2; Joh 1,19; Apg 13,24)

Mt 3,1Mk 1,2Joh 1,19Apg 13,24

4 wie im Buch der Reden des Propheten Jesaja geschrieben steht: Stimme eines Rufers in der Wüste: / Bereitet den Weg des Herrn! / Macht gerade seine Straßen! (Jes 40,3) 5 Jede Schlucht soll aufgefüllt / und jeder Berg und Hügel abgetragen werden. Was krumm ist, soll gerade, / was uneben ist, soll zum ebenen Weg werden. 6 Und alle Menschen werden das Heil Gottes schauen. 7 Da sagte er zu den Volksscharen, die hinauszogen, um sich von ihm taufen zu lassen: Ihr Schlangenbrut, wer hat euch denn gelehrt, dass ihr dem kommenden Zorngericht entrinnen könnt? 8 Bringt Früchte hervor, die eure Umkehr zeigen, und fangt nicht an, bei euch zu sagen: Wir haben Abraham zum Vater! Denn ich sage euch: Gott kann aus diesen Steinen dem Abraham Kinder erwecken. 9 Schon ist die Axt an die Wurzel der Bäume gelegt; jeder Baum, der keine gute Frucht hervorbringt, wird umgehauen und ins Feuer geworfen. (Mt 7,19) 10 Da fragten ihn die Scharen: Was sollen wir also tun? 11 Er antwortete ihnen: Wer zwei Gewänder hat, der gebe eines davon dem, der keines hat, und wer zu essen hat, der handle ebenso! 12 Es kamen auch Zöllner, um sich taufen zu lassen, und fragten ihn: Meister, was sollen wir tun? 13 Er sagte zu ihnen: Verlangt nicht mehr, als festgesetzt ist! 14 Auch Soldaten fragten ihn: Was sollen denn wir tun? Und er sagte zu ihnen: Misshandelt niemanden, erpresst niemanden, begnügt euch mit eurem Sold! 15 Das Volk war voll Erwartung und alle überlegten im Herzen, ob Johannes nicht vielleicht selbst der Christus sei. (Joh 1,24) 16 Doch Johannes gab ihnen allen zur Antwort: Ich taufe euch mit Wasser. Es kommt aber einer, der stärker ist als ich, und ich bin es nicht wert, ihm die Riemen der Sandalen zu lösen. Er wird euch mit dem Heiligen Geist und mit Feuer taufen. (Apg 13,25) 17 Schon hält er die Schaufel in der Hand, um seine Tenne zu reinigen und den Weizen in seine Scheune zu sammeln; die Spreu aber wird er in nie erlöschendem Feuer verbrennen. 18 Mit diesen und vielen anderen Worten ermahnte er das Volk und verkündete die frohe Botschaft. 19 Johannes tadelte auch den Tetrarchen Herodes wegen Herodias, der Frau seines Bruders, und wegen aller Schandtaten, die er verübt hatte. (Mt 14,3; Mk 6,17) 20 Herodes fügte zu allem noch dies hinzu, dass er Johannes ins Gefängnis werfen ließ.

Die Taufe Jesu

21 Es geschah aber, dass sich zusammen mit dem ganzen Volk auch Jesus taufen ließ. Und während er betete, öffnete sich der Himmel (Mt 3,13; Mk 1,9; Joh 1,29) 22 und der Heilige Geist kam sichtbar in Gestalt einer Taube auf ihn herab und eine Stimme aus dem Himmel sprach: Du bist mein geliebter Sohn, an dir habe ich Wohlgefallen gefunden. (1Mo 22,2; Ps 2,7; Jes 42,1)

King James Version

1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene, 2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. 3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; 4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth; 6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. 7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then? 11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise. 12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do? 13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you. 14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages. 15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not; 16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire: 17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable. 18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people. 19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done, 20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison. 21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened, 22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. 23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli, 24 Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Janna, which was the son of Joseph, 25 Which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Amos, which was the son of Naum, which was the son of Esli, which was the son of Nagge, 26 Which was the son of Maath, which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Semei, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Juda, 27 Which was the son of Joanna, which was the son of Rhesa, which was the son of Zorobabel, which was the son of Salathiel, which was the son of Neri, 28 Which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Addi, which was the son of Cosam, which was the son of Elmodam, which was the son of Er, 29 Which was the son of Jose, which was the son of Eliezer, which was the son of Jorim, which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, 30 Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim, 31 Which was the son of Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David, 32 Which was the son of Jesse, which was the son of Obed, which was the son of Booz, which was the son of Salmon, which was the son of Naasson, 33 Which was the son of Aminadab, which was the son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda, 34 Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor, 35 Which was the son of Saruch, which was the son of Ragau, which was the son of Phalec, which was the son of Heber, which was the son of Sala, 36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech, 37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan, 38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.
