Herod falsely supposes Him John
the Holy Bible

--Matthew--

At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus, (14:1)

And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him. (14:2)

But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod. (14:6)

Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask. (14:7)

And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger. (14:8)

And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded [it] to be given [her]. (14:9)

And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison. (14:10)

And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought [it] to her mother. (14:11)

And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus. (14:12)

--Mark--

And king Herod heard [of him]; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him. (6:14)

Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets. (6:15)

But when Herod heard [thereof], he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead. (6:16)

And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief [estates] of Galilee; (6:21)

And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give [it] thee. (6:22)

And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give [it] thee, unto the half of my kingdom. (6:23)

And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist. (6:24)

And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. (6:25)

And the king was exceeding sorry; [yet] for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her. (6:26)

And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison, (6:27)

And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother. (6:28)

And when his disciples heard [of it], they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb. (6:29)

--Luke--

Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead; (9:7)

And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again. (9:8)

And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him. (9:9)
