Contextual Overview
22 After these things, Jesus and his disciples came to the land of Judaea, and he remained there with them, and baptized. 23 John also was baptizing at the spring of Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there; and they came, and were baptized. 24 For John was not yet cast into prison. 25 Now it happened that a dispute arose between one of John''s disciples and a Jew about the ceremony of purifying. 26 So they came to John and told him, Teacher, he who was with you at the Jordan crossing, concerning whom you testified, behold, he also is baptizing and a great many are coming to him. 27 John answered and said to them, No man can receive anything of his own will, except it is given to him from heaven. 28 You yourselves bear me witness that I said, I am not the Christ, but only a messenger to go before him. 29 He who has a bride is the bridegroom; and the best man of the bridegroom is he who stands up and listens to him, and rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom''s voice; this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must become greater and I lesser. 31 For he who has come from above is above all; and he who is of the earth is of the earth, and he speaks of earthly things; but he who has come from heaven is above all.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
For John was not yet cast into prison. As he afterwards was by Herod, for the sake of Herodias, because he reproved Herod for taking her to be his wife, when she was wife to his brother Philip; see Matthew 14:3; and this circumstance shows, that these things were done before that journey of Christ into Galilee, mentioned in Matthew 4:12.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
For John was not yet cast into prison - See Luke 3:20. The mention of this shows that John was not imprisoned until some time after our Lord entered on his ministry. The design of John was to call men to repentance, and to prepare them for the Messiah, and this he continued to do after our Saviour commenced his work. It shows that a minister of religion should be industrious to the day of his death. John still toiled in his work not the “less” because the Messiah had come. So ministers should not labor less when Christ appears by his Spirit, and takes the work into his own hands, and turns many to himself.
