About John the Baptist

John the Baptist (c. 1st century BC – c. AD 30) was a Jewish itinerant preacher and a major religious figure in Christianity, Islam, the Bahá'í Faith, and Mandaeism. He is called a prophet by all of these traditions, and a saint in many Christian traditions. John used baptism as the central sacrament of his messianic movement. Most scholars agree that John baptized Jesus.
