Aenon A place near Shechem in Samaria, though not identified with certainty. When Jesus and his disciples began a ministry of baptism, John moved on to Aenon (John 3: 22–3). John was not yet in prison (3: 24), whereas Mark (1: 14) appears to suggest that Jesus began his teaching only after John's arrest.

retrojection

A Dictionary of the Bible | 1997 | | © A Dictionary of the Bible 1997, originally published by Oxford University Press 1997. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

retrojection The possibility that Christian experience in the early Church has been put back by the writers of the gospels into the lifetime and ministry of Jesus. The gradual exoneration of Pilate as the principal agent of Jesus' crucifixion and its transfer to the Jewish leaders reflects the experiences of the Church in the Roman Empire seeking to establish favourable relations with the authorities. The reference (John 3: 23) to Aenon, which is difficult to identify, may be an account of the activity of followers of the Baptist still surviving in a later generation and resident in that place.
