Thanks John.

It would appear then that "water" probably wouldn't refer to the "water" of biological birth (as some view this passage) but as you say the washing of regeneration.

Matthew 3:11 and Luke 3:16 have a similar construction RE:

baptisei en pneumati hagio kai puri

You're right, and that makes for an interesting parallel, eh?
