The disciples’ question about the prophet Elijah
After the transfiguration, the disciples ask Jesus about the prophecy concerning Elijah. Jesus reveals that John the Baptist fulfills this prophecy, a connection that the Gospels develop progressively.
Mark 9.11-13 (King James Version) :And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org

The authority of the Messiah Jesus challenged
In the Temple of Jerusalem, the religious leaders publicly challenge Jesus’ authority. With a clever counter-question about the baptism of John, he reduces them to silence and exposes their bad faith. This synoptic episode (Matt 21.23-27; Mark 11.27-33; Luke 20.1-8) illustrates the growing opposition of the authorities to the Messiah during his last week before the arrest.
Mark 11.27-33 (King James Version) :And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders,And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority to do these things?And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org

Was John the Baptist the Elijah who was to come?
Jean Baptiste est considéré comme l'Élie prophétique par Jésus, indiquant une mission symbolique, mais il réfute cette identité littéralement, selon Jean 1:19-21. Cette distinction entre mission et identité personnelle clarifie une apparente contradiction biblique.

Did Herod want to kill John the Baptist?
L'article examine les Évangiles de Matthieu et Marc sur la question de savoir si Hérode Antipas voulait réellement tuer Jean-Baptiste. Chaque évangile présente une perspective différente mais complémentaire: Matthieu décrit le désir de mort d'Hérode tempéré par la peur de la foule, tandis que Marc souligne l'influence d'Hérodiade et la fascination d'Hérode pour Jean. Cette analyse montre un Hérode déchiré entre ses émotions et les pressions externes.
Matthew 14.6-11 (King James Version) :But when Herod’s birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist’s head in a charger.And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath’s sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought it to her mother.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
