Context of Luke 9:6

4In each town, continue to stay at the first house that you go into. Stay there until you leave that town. 5In some towns, the people will not accept you. You should leave that place. Clean that town's dirt from your feet. Then it will be clear that they have done something wrong.’ Then the apostles started out. They went to visit all the villages. In every place they told people the good news about Jesus and they made sick people well. 7People told the ruler, Herod, about all the things that were happening. His mind was confused because people were saying lots of different things about Jesus. Some people were saying, ‘John the Baptist died but now he has become alive again.’ 8Other people were saying, ‘It is Elijah that has come back.’ Some other people were saying, ‘This is one of God's prophets who lived a long time ago. Now he has become alive again.’
