The Voice Of One Crying In The Wilderness A voice of one crying out in the wilderness: prepare the way for the lord; make his paths straight! john came baptising in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. the whole judean countryside and all the people of jerusalem were going out to him, and they were baptised by him in the river jordan, confessing their sins. john wore a camel hair garment. He came to his own, and his own did not receive him. but as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become children of god, to those who believe in his name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of god.

Crying In The Wilderness Crying In The Wilderness Volume 3 "a voice of one calling in the wilderness, 'prepare the way for the lord, make straight paths for him.'" this phrase refers to john the baptist, who is identified as the "voice" prophesied by isaiah (isaiah 40:3). the wilderness setting is significant, as it symbolizes a place of spiritual preparation and transformation. John’s mission had been prophesied some seven hundred years earlier by isaiah: “the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘make ready the way of the lord, make his paths straight’” (matthew 3:3; cf. isaiah 40:3–4). he was preparing the hearts of the jews for the coming of their long awaited king. In that "voice" from the wilderness israel had her storm and it was a voice which thundered to slave and prince alike without expediency or partiality. it was a voice which broke up the stony hearts of god’s people and came down like rain upon the lives of ordinary but neglected people. He said, “i am the voice of one crying in the wilderness: make straight the way of the lord, as the prophet isaiah said.” (now those who were sent were from the pharisees.) and they asked him, saying, “why then do you baptize if you are not the christ, nor elijah, nor the prophet?”.
