Today, Saint John the Baptist invites us to repent of our sins and demonstrate it through our actions. For what is faith without works? We must therefore attend to the poor, comfort the afflicted, visit the sick, and so on.
Today, Isaiah also tells us that a shoot will spring from Jesse, who was the father of David. This shoot is none other than Jesus, who is a descendant of David through Joseph. The Gospel of Luke shows us Jesus' entire genealogy back to Adam, if you'd like to read it. I believe it's in chapter 3.
