Commentary

Commentary on Luke 3:22

Theological / Devotional

The Holy Spirit descended on Jesus in bodily form like a dove. God’s voice from heaven declared Jesus as His beloved Son. Some manuscripts add “today I have begotten thee.” This affirms Jesus’ deity and humanity. Luke presents Jesus’ genealogy after His baptism, paralleling Moses’ presentation of his pedigree after his public appearance.
