Herod's Perplexity over Jesus

Luke 9:7-9

Now Herod, the tetrarch, heard of all things that were done by him. And he was in a doubt, because it was said

By some that John was risen from the dead: but by other some, that Elias had appeared: and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

And Herod said: John I have beheaded. But who is this of whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
