Questions about John the Baptist (Mark 1:7–8)
• How does John the Baptist describe the one who is coming after him? What does this reveal about John's own humility and his purpose as a forerunner for Jesus?
• John says he is unworthy "to stoop down and untie the strap of his sandals." What was the cultural significance of this task, and what does this statement emphasize about the vast difference between Jesus and John?
• What is the difference between John's baptism with water and the one who is to come who will "baptize you with the Holy Spirit?" What is the significance of this contrast for the new era that Jesus brings?
Questions about Jesus's baptism (Mark 1:9–11)
• Why did Jesus, who was without sin, submit to a "baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins"? What does this action teach us about Jesus's identity and his mission?
• What is the significance of the heavens being "torn apart" or "opened" at Jesus's baptism? How does this imagery connect with Old Testament prophecy and set the stage for Jesus's ministry?
• The Holy Spirit descends on Jesus "like a dove." How does this imagery portray the nature of the Spirit's anointing?
• The voice from heaven says, "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased." In the Gospel of Mark, this message is directed specifically to Jesus. What is the importance of this personal, private affirmation for Jesus as he begins his ministry?
• What does the entire scene—with the voice of the Father, the descending of the Spirit, and the presence of the Son—reveal about the Trinity?
Questions for personal reflection
• John the Baptist pointed people away from himself and toward Jesus. In what ways can you prepare the way for Jesus in your own life and the lives of others?
• Jesus's baptism marks the beginning of his public ministry, empowered by the Holy Spirit. How can you, as a follower of Christ, rely on the Holy Spirit for your own purpose and calling?
• How does the affirmation that Jesus is the "beloved Son" who was "well pleased" with God affect your own identity as a believer in Christ?
