In context

13Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

14But John would have hindered him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and you come to me?”

15But Jesus, answering, said to him, “Allow it now, for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed him.

17Behold, a voice out of the heavens said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”
