In the fifteenth year of the emperor Tiberius, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea; Herod tetrarch of Gallilee: Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea and Trachonitis: and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene:
but having reproved Herod the tetrarch upon account of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip, and for all the mischiefs that Herod had done;
Now there were several prophets and teachers in the church of Antioch, as Barnabas, Simeon surnam'd Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Now Herod the tetrarch was inform'd of all his transactions: and was perplex'd at the relation of some, that John was risen from the dead: whilst others said, Elias appear'd:
for Herod having secur'd John, bound him, and put him in prison to please Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
In the mean time king Herod heard of Jesus, whose name was now celebrated, and he said, John the Baptist is risen from the dead, no wonder then that he works miracles.
as he was then directing them diligently to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod,
At the same time, some of the Pharisees came to him, and said, get away, retire from hence, for Herod designs to take away your life.
and finding that he belong'd to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was then likewise at Jerusalem.
then Herod and his retinue treated him with contempt, and in derision sent him back magnificently dress'd to Pilate.

In the mean time king Herod heard of Jesus, whose name was now celebrated, and he said, John the Baptist is risen from the dead, no wonder then that he works miracles. others said, 'tis Elias. others, 'tis a prophet, or one equal to a prophet. but Herod, from what he had heard, said, 'tis John himself, whom I caused to be beheaded, who is risen from the dead.

then she withdrew, and said to her mother, what shall I ask? the head of John the Baptist, said she. upon which she instantly fled to the king, and said, I desire to have John the Baptist's head brought hither immediately in a charger. at this the king was exceedingly concern'd; however, in regard to his oath, and to those who were at table with him, he would not refuse her; but immediately dispatch'd the proper officer with orders to bring the head of John the Baptist. accordingly he went, and beheaded him in the prison, and bringing the head in a charger, he presented it to the young lady, who gave it to her mother: of which John's disciples being inform'd, they came to fetch his corps, which they laid in a sepulchre.
