The Baptism of our Lord is an epiphany, a manifestation of the one true God in the flesh and blood of Jesus. He is the chosen servant of the Lord, anointed with the Spirit for the rescue of God’s people and to bring forth justice to the nations. Thus He makes all things new, and He is given as “a covenant for the people, a light for the nations.”
