Marcos 6:14 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 6:14

And king Herod heard [of him]
"Of Jesus", as the Syriac version supplies it; or "the miracles of Jesus", as the Persic version. This Herod here called a king, as he might be by his courtiers, and the common people, is the same with the Tetrarch in ( Matthew 14:1 ) ( Luke 9:7 ) , for he was only Tetrarch of Galilee. This was Herod Antipater, the son of Herod the Great; the fame of Jesus reached his ears, he being governor of those parts, which were mostly visited by Christ:

for his name was spread abroad;
by means of his ministry and miracles, and through those of his disciples, whom he had sent two by two into all parts of the country:

and he said that John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and
therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him;
for Herod had some time before put John to death; and hearing of these wonderful things that were done by Christ, his conscience smote him for the murder of John; and such a thought struck into his mind, that he was risen from the dead, and did these miracles: and the more he thought of it, the more strongly he was persuaded of it; and told it to his courtiers with a great deal of assurance, that it was certainly he; (See Gill on Matthew 14:2).

Marcos 6:14 In-Context

14 Muerte de Juan el Bautista
El rey Herodes Antipas pronto oyó hablar de Jesús, porque todos hablaban de él. Algunos decían:
«Este debe ser Juan el Bautista que resucitó de los muertos. Por eso puede hacer semejantes milagros».

15 Otros decían: «Es Elías». Incluso otros afirmaban: «Es un profeta como los grandes profetas del pasado».

16 Cuando Herodes oyó hablar de Jesús, dijo: «Juan, el hombre que yo decapité, ha regresado de los muertos».
