Matthew 14:12

Jesus
GriefDeath and loss

10 and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.

11 John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.

Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.

13 When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.

14 When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
