John the Baptist | The Man Who Baptised God and Was Beheaded at a Birthday Party
-
Narrated by:
-
By:
He lived in the Judaean desert eating locusts and wild honey. He emerged preaching repentance beside the Jordan River, drawing crowds from across the region. Soldiers came. Tax collectors came. His cousin Jesus came.
John baptised them all.
He fearlessly condemned the ruler Herod Antipas for marrying his brother's wife, and for that he was imprisoned. At Herod's birthday banquet, a dance, a reckless promise, and a grudge changed history. The reward requested was the head of John the Baptist.
Revered in Christianity, Islam, and the Mandaean tradition, John remains one of history's most uncompromising truth-tellers.
