7. You Must Believe That John the Baptist Is The Representative of All Mankind (Matthew 11:1-19)

John the Baptist was a servant of God, who lived alone in the wilderness and whose food was locusts and honey. He wore clothes made out of camel’s hair, sleeping and eating in the wilderness. That’s why regarding John the Baptist, Jesus said the following: “Why did you go out into the wilderness? Did you go out to see a reed shaken by the wind? Or a man clothed in soft garments? Indeed, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses! Didn’t you go out into the wilderness to see John the Baptist? Yes. John the Baptist is the greatest of those born of women. He is greater than all the prophets of the Old Testament.”
Jesus said this because John the Baptist was really the greatest of those born of women. He was raised by God to be the representative of all mankind. In God’s sight, John the Baptist was greater than all the countless judges and prophets of the Old Testament, from Moses to Joshua, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Obadiah, Haggai, and the rest.
