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.

37
But He answered and said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?"
