32 And John gave this witness, saying, I saw the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove and resting on him.

Bible in Basic English, Verse 32
Show original chapter Compare this chapterSource Text Study
Relevant source witnesses currently attached to John 1:32. Some ancient sources use different book or verse structures, so availability notes call out gaps honestly instead of forcing five panels everywhere.
How to read this study data
Source panels are separated by tradition and license. Imported or dataset-backed morphology is stronger than generated or rule-aligned morphology, and editorial alignment notes explain source-structure exceptions without pretending to be ancient source text.
When a verse uses different numbering in a source tradition, Spirit Nation may show the closest mapped source reference and label it directly on the panel.
