We just started studying John's Gospel on Sunday mornings, and so I have spent a little time studying on my own. In the course of my study on chapter 1, I've read commentators who keep referring to OT baptisms. Other than saying, washing, cleansings, etc. none of the commentators would elaborate.
As I studied further I got to thinking about John's baptism and the baptism in the NT. So here are my questions:
1. What is/are OT baptism(s)?
2. What, if any, connection is there to NT baptism?
While I explored this topic years ago, I had very little understanding of reformed or covenant theology at the time. Can anyone in here enlighten me?
