Matthew 3:1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

Matthew 3:6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

This confession of sins is a national confession.

The nation is comprised of individuals. Individuals confessed and were baptized, but as a nation, it was required that Israel be cleansed to enter the coming prophetic kingdom.

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

The verse above also speaks to the same corporate confession of sins required of the nation of Israel.
