John 1:25 In-Context

23 He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Yesha`yahu the prophet said."

24 The ones who had been sent were from the Perushim.

25 They asked him, "Why then do you immerse, if you are not the Messiah, nor Eliyah, nor the Prophet?"

26 Yochanan answered them, "I immerse in water, but among you stands one whom you don't know.

27 He is the one who comes after me, who has come to be before me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to untie."
