Correct! 
It was very significant that Elizabeth name the baby "John" with means the "Grace of God." Remember all the commotion about naming the baby "John" ?
"Jordan" means "judgment."
When people would come to "John the Baptist" at the "Jordan" River, they were receiving God's Grace in the MIDST of His Judgment.
When the Israelites crossed the "Jordan" River, the Ark of the Covenant carried by the priest had to enter the Jordan River first and stand in the place of Judgment while holding in their hands the "Mercy Seat" which was the top lid of the Ark of the Covenant, this caused the Jordan River to divide and create a pathway through the "River of Judgment" which the Israelites crossed and could ONLY cross because of the "Mercy Seat."
The Water Baptism is a special "crossing"................left Egypt (the world), wilderness journey is over (death of the sinful nature) and now, pass through "judgment" with "grace and mercy" to enter the Promise Land - which is "Christ in you, the hope of glory".......eternal life!
Hope this made sense.

Correct!
The "kiss" was a special greeting. All the disciples were there yet, Judas had said, "The one I kiss, He is the one to arrest."
Each of us will have to at some point in our life experience the "Judas kiss" which is betrayal by someone very close to us. When it is your turn, remember Jesus and just walk through it. He is with us!

Very good question.....................
Many might say Able but, they'd be wrong.
God had to kill animals to clothe Adam and Eve. This was the first "shedding of blood" that I know of in the scriptures.

According to Scripture you divide the Word rightly Adam and Eve.... Romans 5:12, Just as sin entered the world thru one man, and death thru sin....
