  • Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, and he was greatly perplexed because some were saying, “John has been raised from the dead” ; others were saying, “Elijah has appeared”; still others, “One of the ancient prophets has arisen.”

    But Herod said, “John I beheaded. Who then is this about whom I hear such things?” And he kept trying to see him.
