Whereas Mark had John baptise Jesus as a matter of course, and Matthew established a clear sense of precedence by having John argue that it should be Jesus who baptised him, there is no mention in John of the baptism of Jesus, although prior knowledge of the synoptic gospels means we usually assume this to have occurred. Some say that John felt it was inappropriate for the divine person of Jesus to be baptised by John the Baptist. Nowhere. What John wrote in his Gospel was, he saw the spirit descended from heaven as a form of a dove.....

John the Baptist was the "voice in the wilderness" that spoke of the coming messiah. John asked people to repent and baptized people in the Jordan river.
