Mark 6:16-18 ▼

16 But when Herod heard [of it], he kept saying, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen [from the dead]!”

17 For Herod himself had sent [guards] and had John arrested and shackled in prison because of Herodias, the wife of his [half-] brother Philip, because he (Herod) had married her.

18 For John had been saying to Herod, “It is not lawful [under Mosaic Law] for you to have your brother’s wife.”
