Matthew 14:4 in Context — Matthew 14
2 Y dijo á sus criados: Este es Juan el Bautista: él ha resucitado de los muertos, y por eso virtudes obran en él.
3 Porque Herodes había prendido á Juan, y le había aprisionado y puesto en la cárcel, por causa de Herodías, mujer de Felipe su hermano;
4 Porque Juan le decía: No te es lícito tenerla.
5 Y quería matarle, mas temía al pueblo; porque le tenían como á profeta.
6 Mas celebrándose el día del nacimiento de Herodes, la hija de Herodías danzó en medio, y agradó á Herodes.
