Event 33– Herod Antipas’ Agitation

Text: Matt 1:1-2; Mark 6:14-16; Luke 9:7-9

^M At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus and ^L about all that was going on ^K for Jesus’ name had become well known. ^L And he was perplexed, because some were saying ^M to his attendants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

^K Others said, ^L that Elijah had appeared, and still others ^K claimed, ^L that one of the prophets of long ago had come back to life.

^K But when Herod heard this, he said, ^L “I beheaded John. Who, then, is this I hear such things about? ^K John, the man I beheaded, has been raised from the dead!” ^L And he tried to see him.
