15. Others said, That it is Elijah. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

16. But when Herod heard of him, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he hath risen from the dead.

17. For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her.

18. For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.

19. Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:

20. For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and observed him: and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.
