At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus, and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer.
He is risen from the dead.
That is why these powers work in him.”
For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
For John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
