Luke 9:7-9

Herod Is Perplexed by Jesus

7 ¹Now ²Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that ³John had been raised from the dead,

8 ⁴by some that Elijah had appeared, and ⁵by others that one of the prophets of old had risen.

9 Herod said, "John I beheaded, but who is this about whom I hear such things?" And ⁶he sought to see him.
