When and for what reason was John beheaded?

John was imprisoned for criticizing the immoral marriage of Herod to Herodias, his sister-in-law. When Herodias and her daughter, Salome, plotted together, they convinced Herod to kill John, although he was reluctant. The famous story is that Salome danced for the king and his friends, and Herod said she could have whatever she wanted, so she asked for John's head on a platter. Herod gave it to her.The Jewish historian Josephus tells us what probably did happen. He says that Herod Antipas had the Baptist arrested and killed in the castle of Macherus, east of the Dead Sea, because he disapproved of Antipas' marriage to his own brother's wife, who divorced her husband in order to marry Herod Antipas. The wedding took place in 34 CE and the execution of John would have been in 35 or 36 CE. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews:"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."

Should Herod have kept the oath he made to his daughter?

According to the Gospels, Herod Antipas had John the Baptist beheaded at the capricious request of his daughter, during the time of Jesus in Galilee.However, the Jewish historian Josephus said that Herod Antipas had the Baptist killed in quite different circumstances, because he disapproved of Antipas' marriage to his own brother's wife, who divorced her husband in order to marry Herod Antipas. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews: "Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."So, according to Josephus, Herod Antipas made no oath or promise to his daughter, who was not actually involved in the execution of John the Baptist.


Which ruler of Galilee beheaded John the Baptist?

After the death of King Herod the Great, his kingdom was divided amongst his sons. Herod Antipas became the ruler of Galilee. According to the Gospels, Herod Antipas had John the Baptist beheaded at the capricious request of his daughter, during the time of Jesus in Galilee (Matthew 14:6-11; Mark 6:21-28).However, we have one other source of information on John the Baptist. The Jewish historian Josephus said that Herod Antipas had the Baptist killed in quite different circumstances, because he disapproved of Antipas' marriage to his own brother's wife, who divorced her husband in order to marry Herod Antipas. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews:"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."The marriage must have taken place after 34 CE and John's execution seems to have taken place in the year 36 CE, at least six years later than what is expected from the New Testament, and after the crucifixion of Jesus. But notice that the historian Josephus does not say whether or not John was beheaded, merely that he was put to death. Macherus is such a long distance from Galilee that it seems improbable that a message could be taken from Galilee to the prison and John's severed head taken back to Galilee while the party was still in progress. So, while it was certainly Antipas who had John put to death, the circumstances were very different and we can not say whether he was beheaded or executed in another manner.


Whose daughter danced for King Herod?

A:The gospels say that the daughter of Herodias danced in the court of Herod Antipas on the occasion of his birthday. Antipas was a younger son of King Herod the Great, not a king but tetrarch of Gallilee. Although she is not named in the gospels, the daughter is usually assumed to have been Salome. As a reward for her dancing, Herod promised her whatever she wished so, prompted by her mother, she asked for the head of John the Baptist and Herod Antipas complied only reluctantly.An independent source of information on the death of John the Baptist is found in the historical writings of Josephus. These tell us that far from merely holding John in prison and being reluctant to execute him, Herod Antipas had ordered John to be taken to the remote castle of Macherus and executed lest he stir up rebellion by the Jews. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews:"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."Josephus also tells us that the wedding of Herod Antipas to Herodias took place in 34 CE and that an event in 36 CE was attributed by the Jews as divine retribution for the death of John, which must therefore have taken place in 35 or early 36 CE. The gospels place his death around 29 CE, which is wrong, they place his execution in Galilee, which is wrong, and they say that Herod was reluctant to see John executed, which is wrong. It is unlikely that Herodias' daughter really danced for Herod Antipas and then asked for John's head on a platter, as portrayed in the gospels.
