How to Honor Jesus
Saturday, 8 March, 2025
14King Herod heard of it, for Jesusname had become known. Somesaid, John the Baptisthas been raised from the dead. That is why these miraculous powers are at work in him.15But others said, He is Elijah. And others said, He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.16But when Herod heard of it, he said, John, whom I beheaded, has been raised.17For it was Herod who had sent and seized John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philips wife, because he had married her.18For John had been saying to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brothers wife.19And Herodias had a grudge against him and wanted to put him to death. But she could not,20for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. When he heard him, he was greatly perplexed, and yet he heard him gladly. 21But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.22For when Herodiass daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests. And the king said to the girl, Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.23And he vowed to her, Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.24And she went out and said to her mother, For what should I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.25And she came in immediately with haste to the king and asked, saying, I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.26And the king was exceedingly sorry, but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her.27And immediately the king sent an executioner with orders to bring Johnshead. He went and beheaded him in the prison28and brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother.29When his disciples heard of it, they came and took his body and laid it in a tomb. Dead you, looking like Jesus Solitary faithfulness won a brotherhood Lost rights preached the Kingdom Taken head gained a crown
