Texts

(1) Mark 6:14-16 = Matt 14:1-2 = Luke 9:7-9

/6:14/ King Herod heard of it, for Jesus' name had become known. Some were saying, "John the baptizer has been raised from the dead; and for this reason these powers are at work in him." /6:15/ But others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old." /6:16/ But when Herod heard of it, he said, "John, whom I beheaded, has been raised."

= Matt 14:1-2
/14:1/ At that time Herod the ruler heard reports about Jesus; /14:2/ and he said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist; he has been raised from the dead, and for this reason these powers are at work in him."

= Luke 9:7-9
/9:7/ Now Herod the ruler heard about all that had taken place, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead, /9:8/ by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the ancient prophets had arisen. /9:9/ Herod said, "John I beheaded; but who is this about whom I hear such things?" And he tried to see him.
