Matthew 3:13 Douay-Rheims

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan, unto John, to be baptized by him.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

(Hom. x. 1.) Because after His baptism Christ was to put an end to the Law, He therefore came to be baptized at this age, that having so kept the Law, it might not be said that He cancelled it, because He could not observe it.
