The main figure of the Gospels is Jesus Christ. And yet all four Gospels place John the Baptist before the public ministry of Jesus. Matthew, after finishing the account of Jesus’ birth and flight, introduces John crying out for repentance in the wilderness before entering the scene of Jesus’ baptism. Mark is more direct. He declares the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and then immediately speaks of the messenger who would prepare the way and of the voice in the wilderness.
