In whose name was Jesus baptized? I know that people are baptized now in either:


The name of Jesus (Acts 2:38)
The name of Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19)


But according to scripture, in whose name was Jesus baptized? Thus indirectly, in whose name did John the Baptist baptize?
Scripture doesn't say.

However, what does it mean to "baptize in someone's name"? It means baptizing, having the authority of that person to do so. If we baptize in the name of Jesus, it is as though Jesus had baptized.

John the baptist was son of a priest, so it is safe to assume that he had priestly authority from God to baptize. Thus he baptized in God's name (no matter what he said when he did it).
