SEV Biblia, Chapter 1:11
Y hubo una voz de los cielos que decía : T eres mi Hijo amado; en ti tomo contentamiento.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 11. And there came a voice from heaven , etc..] What the Jews call Bath Kol, saying, thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased : it is in Matthew, this is my beloved Son, ( Matthew 3:17); as if the words were spoken to others, to John, the administrator of baptism to him, and to those that were spectators; directing them to Christ, on whom the Spirit now descended, and testifying to them how great a person he was, how nearly related to God; how much he was the object of his love, and what a pleasure and delight he took in him; but here they are delivered as an immediate address to Christ himself, thou art my beloved Son. Christ, as he was the only begotten Son of God from eternity, so his filiation was owned and declared to him as early, ( Psalm 2:7). This therefore was not the first time, nor was it only for his sake that this was said unto him, but also for the sake of those that stood by: but it may be observed, that he is not only called his Son, but his beloved Son; which might be necessary to be said to him in his state of humiliation, whilst he was yielding obedience to the will of God, and fulfilling all righteousness; and when he was about to be, as he quickly after this was, tempted by Satan in the wilderness, by whom his sonship was called in question. Now these words being directed to Christ, show that the former are spoken of him, and are applicable to him, as well as to John; (see Gill on Matthew 3:17).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 9-13 - Christ's baptism was his first public appearance, after he had lon lived unknown. How much hidden worth is there, which in this world is not known! But sooner or later it shall be known, as Christ was. He took upon himself the likeness of sinful flesh; and thus, for ou sakes, he sanctified himself, that we also might be sanctified, and be baptized with him, Joh 17:19. See how honourably God owned him, when he submitted to John's baptism. He saw the Spirit descending upon him lik a dove. We may see heaven opened to us, when we perceive the Spiri descending and working upon us. God's good work in us, is sure evidenc of his good will towards us, and preparations for us. As to Christ' temptation, Mark notices his being in the wilderness and that he wa with the wild beasts. It was an instance of his Father's care of him which encouraged him the more that his Father would provide for him Special protections are earnests of seasonable supplies. The serpen tempted the first Adam in the garden, the Second Adam in the wilderness; with different success indeed; and ever since he stil tempts the children of both, in all places and conditions. Company an conversation have their temptations; and being alone, even in wilderness, has its own also. No place or state exempts, no business not lawful labouring, eating, or drinking, not even fasting an praying; often in these duties there are the most assaults, but in the is the sweetest victory. The ministration of the good angels is matte of great comfort in reference to the malignant designs of the evi angels; but much more does it comfort us, to have the indwelling of God the Holy Spirit in our hearts.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
11. Thou art my beloved son. The three synoptists give the saying in the same form: Thou art my son, the beloved.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
1:11 {Thou art} (su ei). So #Lu 3:22. #Mt 3:17 has { this is} (houtos estin) which see. So both Mark and Luke have "in thee," while Matthew has "in whom."
