John 1:30 In-Context

28 This conversation took place at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him and exclaimed, "Look, that is the Lamb of God who is to take away the sin of the world!

30 This is He about whom I said, `After me is to come One who has been put before me, because He was before me.'

31 I did not yet know Him; but that He may be openly shown to Israel is the reason why I have come baptizing in water."

32 John also gave testimony by stating: "I have seen the Spirit coming down like a dove out of Heaven; and it remained upon Him.
