Luke 9:7-9

International Standard Version

Herod Tries to See Jesus^(A)

⁷ Now Herod the tetrarch heard about everything that was happening. He was puzzled because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead, ⁸ by others that Elijah had appeared, and by still others that one of the ancient prophets had come back to life. ⁹ Herod said, “I beheaded John. But who is this man I’m hearing so much about?” So Herod^[a] kept trying to see Jesus.^[b]
