Baptism of Jesus
Matthew 3:13-17, Mark 1:9-11, Luke 3:21-22
This window in the north wall of the chancel depicts Jesus' baptism in the river Jordan by John, the Baptist. Notice how the figures in the right hand side of the window, who have yet to be baptized, appear lifeless and drained of color. Also notice how vividly the phrase from the above scriptures, “…he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him,” is illustrated in this window.
