And were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

Theophylact of Ochrid

AD 1107
They were baptized, but the baptism of John did not have the power to forgive sins; for John was only preaching repentance and bringing them towards the forgiveness of sins, that is, he was guiding them to the baptism of Christ, from which there is remission of sins.
