Mark 6:27
Mark 6:27 Sent an executioner. One of his body guard. Under Oriental monarchs the captain of the guard was the executioner.
25 Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, “I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.”
26 aAnd the king was exceedingly sorry; yet, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he did not want to refuse her.
27 Immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in prison,
28 brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.
29 When his disciples heard of it, they came and atook away his corpse and laid it in a tomb.
Feeding the Five Thousand
30 aThen the apostles gathered to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.
31 aAnd He said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” For bthere were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
