will not receive you, nor hear you, when you go out thence shake off
the dust which is under your feet for a testimony to them. [6:12]And
going out, they preached that [men] should change their minds,
[6:13]and cast out many demons, and anointed many sick persons with
oil, and cured them.

3 [6:14]And Herod the king, heard [of Jesus], for his name was widely
known, and said, John the Baptist has risen from the dead; and on this
account the mighty works are performed by him. [6:15]But others said,
he is Elijah; and others said, He is a prophet, like one of the
prophets. [6:16]But Herod hearing of him, said, This is John whom I
beheaded; he has been raised up. [6:17]For Herod had sent and taken
John, and, put him bound in prison on account of Herodias, his brother
Philip's wife, because he had married her. [6:18]For John said to

and those reclining with him, he was not willing to refuse her.
[6:27]And the king immediately sending an executioner, commanded him to
bring his head. And he went out and beheaded him in the prison,
[6:28]and brought his head on a plate, and gave it to the girl, and the
