John the Baptist
Prophet to: Roman Client Kingdom
Quick History

Apart from Jesus Christ himself, John the Baptist is probably the most theologically significant figure in the Gospels. As was the case with Jesus, his birth was meticulously recorded ( Luke 1:5-25 ) and his entrance into the world was marked by angelic proclamation and divine intervention ( Luke 1:57-80 ). John's birth both parallels that of Jesus, and the birth of Isaac to Abraham and Sarah ( Gen 17:15-22 ; 21:1-7 ).
