Matthew 3:5 Context
3For this is he that was spoken of by the Prophet Esaias, saying, The voyce of one crying in the wildernes, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 4And the same Iohn had his raiment of camels haire, and a leatherne girdle about his loynes, and his meate was locusts and wilde hony. 5Then went out to him Hierusalem, and all Iudea, and all the region round about Iordane, 6And were baptized of him in Iordane, confessing their sinnes. 7¶ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his Baptisme, he said vnto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
