22 After these things Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judaea, and he tarried there with them and baptized.
23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim because there was much water there, and they came and were baptized.
24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 Then there arose a question between the disciples of John and the Jews about purifying.
26 And they came unto John and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan of whom thou gave witness, behold, the same baptizes, and all men come to him.
27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing except it is given him from the heaven.
28 Ye yourselves are my witnesses that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
