What did the circumstances of John the Baptist's death tell about the messiah and the kingdom?

The first century Jewish historian, Josephus tells us that John was executed in Macherus because he publicly declared his opposition to Herod Antipas' marriage to his brother's former wife. Antipas feared public discontent unless he disposed of John the Baptist. It is hard to find much in the historical account of John's death about the messiah and the kingdom.
However, the four New Testament gospels contain stories about the death of John the Baptist in Galilee and in slightly similar circumstances. Although probably not strictly historical, these may be interpreted in different ways, to elicit ideas about the messiah.
