Herod's Perplexity over Jesus

Luke 9:7-9

Herod the governor heard about all that was going on and was perplexed, because it was said by some that Yochanan had been raised from the dead,

by others that Eliyahu had appeared, and by others that one of the prophets of long ago had come back to life.

Herod said, “I had Yochanan beheaded, so who is this about whom I keep hearing such things?” And he began trying to see him.
