Abstract

This thesis is not written in answer to any current controversy on the subject. It grew rather out of a personal interest in the subject of baptism. Increasing interest in the topic led inevitably to the question of the relationship between Christian baptism and its prototype in John’s baptism. This thesis is a beginning in the direction of an answer to that question. The problem is, of course,, not an original one, for it has been the subject of much previous exegetical investigation.
