11 A voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
Behold, my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delights: I have put my Spirit on him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
Behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."
I will tell of the decree. Yahweh said to me, "You are my son. Today I have become your father.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love;
For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." This voice we heard come out of heaven when we were with him in the holy mountain.
A voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!"
I have seen, and have testified that this is the Son of God."
The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. One who believes in the Son has eternal life, but one who disobeys{The same word can be translated "disobeys" or "disbelieves" in this context.} the Son won't see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."
For the Father has affection for the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. He will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel. For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom he desires. For the Father judges no one, but he has given all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who doesn't honor the Son doesn't honor the Father who sent him.
The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
Father, glorify your name!" Then there came a voice out of the sky, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again." The multitude therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him." Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes.

We may observe here,
Quotations are here borrowed from two prophecies-that of Isaiah, which was the longest, and that of Malachi, which was the latest (and there were above three hundred years between them), both of whom spoke to the same purport concerning the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, in the ministry of John.
Mar 1:9-13

Observe,
Mar 1:23-28
As soon as Christ began to preach, he began to work miracles for the confirmation of his doctrine; and they were such as intimated the design and tendency of his doctrine, which were to conquer Satan, and cure sick souls.
