The Baptism of Jesus Bible Crossword

15×15 grid · Medium · Ends on Mark 1:11

He comes from Nazareth to a river where his cousin is baptizing, and John tries to talk him out of it. Then the heavens open, the Spirit descends like a dove, and a voice says something short. The Baptism of Jesus puts that scene into a grid.

It is a compact story, so the puzzle reaches either side of it — the wilderness before and the temptation after. The closing verse is the voice from heaven itself.
