En uno de sus m\u00e1s c\u00e9lebres sermones, San Agust\u00edn de Hipona (354-430) nos dice sobre Juan el Bautista: \u201cLa Iglesia celebra el nacimiento de Juan como algo sagrado y \u00e9l es el \u00fanico de los santos cuyo nacimiento se festeja\u201d.Estas palabras del Obispo de Hipona evidencian la convicci\u00f3n que tiene la Iglesia sobre Juan desde sus inicios.<\/p>\n

A\u00f1ade Agust\u00edn: \u201cJuan viene a ser como la l\u00ednea divisoria entre los dos Testamentos, el antiguo y el nuevo. As\u00ed lo atestigua el mismo Se\u00f1or, cuando dice: la ley y los profetas llegaron hasta Juan\u201d.<\/p>\n

En el primer cap\u00edtulo del Evangelio de San Lucas se narra c\u00f3mo Zacar\u00edas, sacerdote jud\u00edo casado con Isabel, no hab\u00eda podido tener hijos porque su mujer era est\u00e9ril y de edad avanzada. Entonces, el \u00e1ngel Gabriel se le apareci\u00f3 a Zacar\u00edas, a la derecha del altar, y le dijo que su esposa tendr\u00eda un hijo que ser\u00eda el precursor del Mes\u00edas, y a quien pondr\u00eda por nombre \u201cJuan\u201d. Como Zacar\u00edas dud\u00f3 de que esto fuera posible, qued\u00f3 mudo hasta que todo se cumpli\u00f3.<\/p>\n

Despu\u00e9s de que el \u00e1ngel Gabriel se le apareci\u00f3 a la Virgen Mar\u00eda para anunciarle que ser\u00eda la madre del Salvador, Ella, la \u201cllena de gracia\u201d, parti\u00f3 a ver a su prima Isabel, que estaba encinta y se qued\u00f3 para ayudarla hasta que el ni\u00f1o nazca. Ese ni\u00f1o, nacido de la mujer a la que llamaban est\u00e9ril, era Juan, \u201cvoz que clama en el desierto\u201d, el hombre que habr\u00eda de allanar el camino del Mes\u00edas. San Juan Bautista naci\u00f3 seis meses antes que Jesucristo.<\/p>\n

As\u00ed como el nacimiento del Se\u00f1or Jes\u00fas se celebra cada 25 de diciembre, durante el solsticio de invierno (el d\u00eda m\u00e1s corto del a\u00f1o); el nacimiento de San Juan se celebra el 24 de junio, solsticio de verano (el d\u00eda m\u00e1s largo). As\u00ed, despu\u00e9s de Jes\u00fas los \u201cd\u00edas van a m\u00e1s\u201d (son m\u00e1s largos) y despu\u00e9s de Juan, los d\u00edas \u201cvan a menos\u201d, hasta que vuelve \u201ca nacer el sol\u201d de Justicia, el Se\u00f1or. La Iglesia estableci\u00f3 estas fechas en el siglo IV, con la finalidad de que, superpuestas a dos fiestas importantes del calendario greco-romano, cobrasen un nuevo sentido: el \u201cd\u00eda del sol\u201d (25 de diciembre) y el \u201cd\u00eda de Diana\u201d, fiesta de la fertilidad (24 de junio), ser\u00edan desde entonces fiestas cristianas porque evocan la obra de la salvaci\u00f3n, pero que se vinculan tambi\u00e9n al ciclo de la vida natural, obra de Dios.<\/p>\n

La Iglesia cat\u00f3lica ha considerado en el calendario cristiano otra fecha para celebrar a San Juan Bautista, pero recordando su muerte: \u201cEl martirio de San Juan Bautista\u201d (29 de agosto de cada a\u00f1o).<\/p>\n
