To Jews Messiah was an expected leader who was to lead the Children of Israel away from
their lives of toil and misery and into the promised land. However to John, The Avatar is the Absolute Creator taking a human body at the time of humanity's lowest state to guide it away from the trap of sin and corruption into which it had fallen.
The synoptic authors are as faithful as they can be to the events they are trying to record. John attempts to communicate the meaning and purpose of the Incarnation. To him Spirit is a concrete reality, where to most it is merely vanity and a chasing after wind
