In context
24Those who had been sent were from the Pharisees, 25and they questioned him: “Then why do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?” 26John answered them, “I baptize with water. Among you stands one you do not know, 27the one who comes after me; I am not worthy to untie the strap of his sandal.” 28This took place in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
