Luke 3:3 And so he came (or: went) into all the region around the Jordan River, repeatedly making a public proclamation heralding an immersion (or: baptism) of a change of mind and way of thinking which also implied a return to God, into a flowing-away of failures (a sending-away of mistakes; a letting-go and release of failed attempts to hit the target and attain the goal; abandonment of sins; a divorce from, and a forgiveness of, errors).
