Where did Jesus go after John the Baptist was arrested?

Answer 1

A:Exactly when John the Baptist was arrested and executed is uncertain. The synoptic gospels say that the arrest and execution would have occurred quite early in the mission of Jesus, but John's Gospel places it sometime later, although still well before the crucifixion of Jesus. As with the gospels, the first-century Jewish historian Josephus says that John was arrested after the marriage of Herod Antipas to his own brother's former wife, but says that the marriage took place in 34 CE and provides other information that indicates that John was arrested and executed in 35 or early in 36 CE, after the death of Jesus.

The first New Testament gospel to be written was Mark's Gospel, so this could be closer to the actual events in the mission of Jesus. In Mark 1:14, John was imprisoned and then Jesus came into Galilee and began to preach.

Answer 2

Upon receiving the news that his cousin John the Baptizer had been beheaded, he "withdrew from there by boat into a lonely place for isolation." (Matthew 14:12,13)
