      CHAPTER XXII.

      1 Jesus conceals his miracles,

       2 studies the law,

       3 and is baptized.

      NOW from this time Jesus began

       to conceal his miracles and

       secret works,

      2 And gave himself to the study

       of the law, till he arrived to the

       end of his thirtieth year;

      3 At which time the Father publicly

       owned him at Jordan, sending

       down this voice from heaven, This

       is my beloved son, in whom I am

       well pleased;

      4 The Holy Ghost being also

       present in the form of a dove.

      5 This is he whom we worship

       with all reverence, because he gave

       us our life and being, and brought

       us from our mother's womb,

       Glory to God,

      6 Who, for our sakes, took a

       human body, and hath redeemed

       us, that so he might embrace

       us with everlasting mercy, and

       shew his free, large, bountiful

       grace and goodness to us.

      7 To him be glory and praise,

       and power, and dominion, from

       henceforth said for evermore.

       Amen.

      (The end of the whole Gospel of

       the Infancy, by the assistance of

       the Supreme God, according to

       what we found in the original.)
