Mark 1:9-15 (6th Hour, Gospel)

9
It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10
And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.
11
Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12
Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.
13
And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.
14
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
