Resumen de la Escritura

Many will read the Isaiah text and identify the servant with Jesus, the one God enables to do the work of justice and transformation. The psalm announces the glory of God, a king powerful over the turbulence of nature and whose voice is a transcendent revelation.

Peter’s speech in Acts reminds us that Jesus’ baptism carries with it the promise of baptism in the Spirit.
