21When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened

22and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.”

24the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melki, the son of Jannai, the son of Joseph,

25the son of Mattathias, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai,
