John the Baptist, one of the greatest, and best, and most honoured of men, was cruelly put to death ! His murder was one of the basest and most atrocious that was ever committed, even by the vilest of men. During the time John preached as the forerunner of Jesus, Herod was tetrarch, or king of Galilee, under the Roman imperial government. This is not the same Herod who reigned at the time of our Saviour's birth. He died when the infant Jesus, with Mary and Joseph, abode in Egypt. But this was t...he same Herod who reigned when our Saviour died on Calvary's cross, — the same Herod before whom our Lord appeared when this monster of iniquity commanded him to be arrayed in a gorgeous robe of mock royalty, and to be set at nought. Such was the fame of John the Baptist throughout the whole land, that Herod was influenced by curiosity, and felt a great desire to listen to his remarkable elo- quence. He gratified his wish. He went and heard him. The sermons produced a considerable effect upon his mind, though long hardened in sin.
