Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that, Jesus also having been baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

And it came to pass, all the people having been baptised, and Jesus having been baptised and praying, that the heaven was opened,

And it came to pass, in all the people being baptised, Jesus also being baptised, and praying, the heaven was opened,

Now when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the sky opened,

Now it came about that when all the people had been given baptism, Jesus, having had baptism with them, was in prayer, when, the heaven being open,

Now it happened that, when all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized; and as he was praying, heaven was opened.

Now after the baptism of all the people, and when Jesus had been baptized and was still praying, the heavens opened,

See the notes at Matthew 3:13-17. "Jesus being baptized;" or, Jesus "having been" baptized. This took place after the baptism, and not "during" its administration, Matthew 3:16.
Praying - This circumstance is omitted by the other evangelists; and it shows,
1. That Jesus was in the habit of prayer.
2. That it is proper to offer up special prayer at the administration of the ordinances of religion.
3. That it is possible to pray in the midst of a great multitude, yet in secret. The prayer consisted, doubtless, in lifting up the heart silently to God. So "we" may do it anywhere - about our daily toil - in the midst of multitudes, and thus may pray "always."

Jesus - being baptized - See on Matthew 3:16, Matthew 3:17 (note).

(5) Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
(5) Our baptism is sanctified in the head of the Church, and Christ also by the voice of the Father is pronounced to be our everlasting King, Priest, and Prophet.

Now when all the people were baptized,.... That came from several parts to John for this purpose, even as many as he judged to be proper subjects of that ordinance, as many of the common people, publicans, soldiers, &c.
it came to pass that Jesus also being baptized; of John in Jordan, he coming from Galilee thither on that account:
and praying; after he was baptized, for the coming down of the Spirit upon him, as man, to anoint, and qualify him for his office he was now about to enter on publicly: and for success in it, and for a testimony from heaven, that he was the Son of God, and true Messiah:
the heaven was opened; See Gill on Matthew 3:16.

Christ did not confess sin, as others did, for he had none to confess; but he prayed, as others did, and kept up communion with his Father. Observe, all the three voices from heaven, by which the Father bare witness to the Son, were pronounced while he was praying, or soon after, Luke 9:35; John 12:28. The Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and there came a voice from heaven, from God the Father, from the excellent glory. Thus was a proof of the Holy Trinity, of the Three Persons in the Godhead, given at the baptism of Christ.

BAPTISM OF AND DESCENT OF THE SPIRIT UPON JESUS. (Luke 3:21-22)
when all the people were baptized--that He might not seem to be merely one of the crowd. Thus, as He rode into Jerusalem upon an ass, "whereon yet never man sat" (Luke 19:30), and lay in a sepulchre "wherein was never man yet laid" (John 19:41), so in His baptism He would be "separate from sinners."

Jesus also being baptized. See notes on Matthew 3:13-17; also Mark 1:9-11.

Jesus praying, the heaven was opened - It is observable, that the three voices from heaven, see Luke 9:29, Luke 9:35; John 12:28; by which the Father bore witness to Christ, were pronounced either while he was praying, or quickly after it. Matthew 3:13; Mark 1:9.
