“Next to the river Jordan, we look and contemplate, as if it is a godly scene before us. Our God Himself has been declared to us, for He is the Trinity. Jesus came to be baptized by means of John, the Lord by means of the slave, an example of modesty. In humbleness He showed us love has been perfected and fulfilled.”
St Augustine
