Luke 3:20 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 3:20

Added yet this above all
This sin to all other sins, and which was of a more flagitious nature; and attended with more aggravating circumstances, especially in the issue of it:

that he shut up John in prison;
in the castle of Machaerus, by the instigation of Herodias; (See Gill on Matthew 14:3).

19 Herodes autem tetrarcha cum corriperetur ab illo de Herodiade uxore fratris sui et de omnibus malis quae fecit Herodes

20 adiecit et hoc supra omnia et inclusit Iohannem in carcere

21 factum est autem cum baptizaretur omnis populus et Iesu baptizato et orante apertum est caelum

22 et descendit Spiritus Sanctus corporali specie sicut columba in ipsum et vox de caelo facta est tu es Filius meus dilectus in te conplacuit mihi
