'King' in the Bible

King Herod heard about this, because Jesus' name had become well-known. He was saying, "John the Baptist has been raised from the dead! That's why he is able to do these miracles."

When the daughter of Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. So the king told the girl, "Ask me for anything you want, and I'll give it to you."

Immediately the girl hurried back to the king with her request, "I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

The king was deeply saddened, yet because of his oaths and his guests he was reluctant to refuse her.

So without delay the king sent a soldier and ordered him to bring John's head. The soldier went and beheaded him in prison.

Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered him, "You say so."

Pilate answered them, "Do you want me to release the king of the Jews for you?"

So Pilate asked them again, "Then what should I do with the man you call "the King of the Jews'?"

They began to greet him, "Long live the king of the Jews!"

The written notice of the charge against him read, "The king of the Jews."

Let the Messiah, the king of Israel, come down from the cross now, since seeing is believing!" Even the men who were crucified with him kept insulting him.
