Luke 3:21-22 King James Version (KJV)
21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
Luke 3:21-22 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
The Baptism of Jesus
21 When all the people were baptized, Jesus also was baptized. As He was praying, heaven opened, 22 and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in a physical appearance like a dove. And a voice came from heaven:
You are My beloved Son.
I take delight in You!

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
21 This is looking back this was done before the verses that come before it because Jesus was not baptized by John while he was in prison or dead. The heavens opening refers to God seeing it and speaking it is reference to God.
22 A dove would become a symbol for the Holy Spirit. The voice represent God just as the dove does and Jesus does. Jesus was the Son of the Father but they are both One God. Jesus as the Son was to fulfill scripture which made the Son a delight to the Father. When we live according to scripture we delight the Lord.
