Mark 6:17

Context
6:17 For Herod himself had sent men, arrested John, and bound him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, because Herod 1  had married her.

Mark 6:27

Context
6:27 So 2  the king sent an executioner at once to bring John’s 3  head, and he went and beheaded John in prison.

1 tn Grk “he”; here it is necessary to specify the referent as “Herod,” since the nearest previous antecedent in the translation is Philip.

2 tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action(s) in the narrative.

3 tn Grk “his”; the referent (John the Baptist) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
