Matthew 14 Intro: John the Baptist beheaded -- A multitude miraculously fed.
1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch 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 show forth themselves in him.
2 For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison, for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.
3 For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.
4 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
5 But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.
6 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.
7 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here, John Baptist's head in a charger.
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.
