It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10
And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.
11
Then a voice came from heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
12
Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.
13
And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.
14
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15
and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel."
16
And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
17
Then Jesus said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men."
18
They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
19
When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.
