A Heavenly Wedding on the Banks of the Jordan! The Baptism of Christ according to St. Jacob of Serugh

St. Jacob of Serugh imagines how Christ went to the River Jordan where crowds of people would gather from multiple places to repent of their sins and accept baptism from St. John the Baptist. But what a difference between them and Him! They come in repentance and mourn over their sins, and He is the Messiah, the Lord, the King of Kings. He has come to hold a joyous wedding feast that includes all nations, not just one, and excludes no one.
