Matthew 14:1-5

1AtG1722 thatG1565 timeG2540 HerodG2264 theG3588 tetrarchG5076 heardG191 theG3588 reportsG189 about JesusG2424 2andG2532 saidG2036 toG3588 hisG846 servantsG3816, “ThisG3778 isG1510 JohnG2491 theG3588 BaptistG910; heG846 has risenG1453 fromG575 theG3588 deadG3498! ThatG3778 is whyG1223 miraculous powersG1411 are at workG1754 inG1722 himG846.”

3Now HerodG2264 had arrestedG2902 JohnG2491 and boundG1210 himG846 andG2532 putG659 him inG1722 prisonG5438 on account ofG1223 HerodiasG2266, hisG846 brotherG80 Philip’sG5376 wifeG1135, 4becauseG1063 JohnG2491 had been tellingG2036 himG846, “It is not lawfulG3756G1832 for youG4771 to haveG2192 herG846.” 5AlthoughG2532 Herod wantedG2309 to killG615 John, he was afraidG5399 of theG3588 peopleG3793, becauseG3754 they regardedG2192 John asG5613 a prophetG4396.
