Matthew 14:3 in Context — Matthew 14
1 Naquele tempo Herodes, o tetrarca, ouviu relato a respeito de Jesus,
2 e disse aos seus servos: Este é João Batista; ele ressuscitou dos mortos, e por isso os milagres operam nele.
3 Porque Herodes havia prendido a João, acorrentado-o, e posto na prisão, por causa de Herodias, mulher do seu irmão Filipe;
4 pois João lhe dizia: Não te lícito que a tenhas.
5 [Herodes] queria matá-lo, mas tinha medo do povo, pois o consideravam profeta.
