Matthew 14 Notes:
Matthew 14:1-12 -> *Mark 6:14-29 -> Luke 9:7-9
Herod arrested John the Baptizer because of Herodias, Herod's sister in law (Phillip's wife).
• John said Herod and Herodias shouldn't be married. It was against Jewish law. Leviticus 18:16; 20:21
• Herodias hated John because of what John said.
*Heartcheck: Hate someone for speaking the truth?
-- Meaning of the name Herod?
Herod Antipas - King Herod - hero
*far from what his name meant* Greek
Herod Tetrarch - Ruler of the fourth division
-- Is Herod now married to his brother's wife?
Two of Herod’s sons were Herod Philip and Herod Antipas. Herod Philip married Herodias. When Herod Antipas visited his brother, he wanted Herodias for a wife for himself. So Herod Antipas divorced his own wife, Herodias divorced Herod Philip first, and Herod Antipas and Herodias got married.
WHEN THE OPINIONS OF MEN BECOME MORE IMPORTANT THAN PLEASING THE FATHER
• Herod enjoyed listening to John, and he protected John. Mark 6:20
• Herod didn't want to kill John because he was scared of the people who believed John was a prophet.
• Herod killed John because everyone was watching him, and he had already promised his daughter 'anything she wanted'.
• Herod felt guilty.
• Was later accused of conspiracy against the Roman Empire by his nephew and was sent away to Spain to live alone with Herodias.
*Herodias is very manipulative. She knew that he would keep his promise out of fear of men's opinions of him. She had been unable to convince Herod to kill John (Mark 6:19).
*Trump*
Antipas ruled throughout Jesus' time here.
V.13-14
Jesus helps (heals) regardless of how He's feeling.
Heart check: You may treat people well often, but how often do you treat them when you're not in the mood?
V.17-21
There were over 5000 people who ate and were filled from only five loaves of bread and two fish.
*When you're in God's Will, watch how your resources stretch.*
V.25-33
Jesus walks on the water. Peter wants proof that it's Jesus, so he requests to also walk on water with Him. Then, Peter saw the wind and the waves. He got scared, and he began to sink. Jesus said Peter had little faith. They said, "You are really the Son of God."

Voice 001
V.34-36
Came to the shore of Gennesaret. The people there believed in Jesus. They believed that if they could just touch the edge of His coat, they'd be healed.
*only the edge 😂
