Herod

At that time Herod the Tetrarche heard of the fame of Iesus,

For Herod had taken Iohn, and bounde him, and put him in prison for Herodias sake, his brother Philips wife.

But when Herods birth day was kept, the daughter of Herodias daunced before them, and pleased Herod.

Then King Herod heard of him (for his name was made manifest) and sayd, Iohn Baptist is risen againe from the dead, and therefore great workes are wrought by him.

So when Herod heard it, he said, It is Iohn whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.

For Herod him selfe had sent forth, and had taken Iohn, and bound him in prison for Herodias sake, which was his brother Philippes wife, because he had maried her.

For Iohn sayd vnto Herod, It is not lawfull for thee to haue thy brothers wife.

For Herod feared Iohn, knowing that hee was a iust man, and an holy, and reuerenced him, and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.

But the time being conuenient, when Herod on his birth day made a banket to his princes and captaines, and chiefe estates of Galile:

And the daughter of the same Herodias came in, and daunced, and pleased Herod, and them that sate at table together, the King sayd vnto the mayde, Aske of me what thou wilt, and I will giue it thee.

And he charged them, saying, Take heede, and beware of the leauen of the Pharises, and of the leauen of Herod.

Nowe in the fifteenth yeere of the reigne of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being gouernour of Iudea, and Herod being Tetrarch of Galile, and his brother Philip Tetrarch of Iturea, and of the countrey of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the Tetrarch of Abilene,

But when Herod the Tetrarch was rebuked of him, for Herodias his brother Philips wife, and for all the euils which Herod had done,

Nowe Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he douted, because that it was sayd of some, that Iohn was risen againe from the dead:

Then Herod sayd, Iohn haue I beheaded: who then is this of whome I heare such things? and he desired to see him.

The same day there came certaine Pharises, and said vnto him, Depart, and goe hence: for Herod will kill thee.

And when he knewe that he was of Herods iurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, which was also at Hierusalem in those dayes.

And when Herod sawe Iesus, hee was exceedingly glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him, and trusted to haue seene some signe done by him.

And Herod with his men of warre, despised him, and mocked him, and arayed him in white, and sent him againe to Pilate.

And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were enemies one to another.

No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him: and loe, nothing worthy of death is done of him.

For doutlesse, against thine holy Sonne Iesus, whome thou haddest anoynted, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel gathered themselues together,

There were also in the Church that was at Antiochia, certaine Prophets and teachers, as Barnabas, and Simeon called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen (which had bin brought vp with Herod the Tetrarche) and Saul.
