What does Matthew 14:1-4 mean? Commentary, explanation and study verse by verse.
At that time Herod the tetrarcha heard of the fame of Jesus,
And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
