New Defender's Study Bible Notes
11:30 was it from heaven. This question not only silenced the scribes but is also a good question for modern Christians. Many have maligned John’s baptism, saying it was inadequate and valid for only a few years at most. There are, on the other hand, good reasons to accept it as valid Christian baptism. See notes on Matthew 3:6,8,11,15,16.
