After these things That is, some time after our Lord's conference with Nicodemus; came Jesus and his disciples From Jerusalem, where they had kept the passover together; into the land of Judea That is, into a part of it which was at some distance from the capital city; and there he tarried with them How long is not said; and baptized Not himself, but his disciples, by his order, John 4:2. And John also was baptizing, at that time, at Ænon, near Salim A town on the west side of Jordan; because there was much water there Which made it very convenient for his purpose. And they came Namely, people came from various parts; and were baptized by him. For John was not yet cast into prison As he was a few months after, by the injustice of Herod, in whose dominions that place was.
