This page contains a map which shows the relative location of the Wilderness
of Judah.
North is towards the top. Scale is unknown.

Additional information:
Considering that paragraph 007 states that the
people of Jerusalem and Judaea went out to John to be baptized by him, the
wilderness in question in that paragraph might have been the Wilderness of Judah
which is shown above. Considering that the paragraph also states that John the
Baptist baptized people in the Jordan (instead of in the Dead Sea), then he
might have been somewhere between Jericho and the north end of the Dead Sea. He
nevertheless could have been farther north, as indicated by the fact that Jesus
came from Nazareth to him to be baptized by
him (paragraph 009).
