Ἰωάννης Iōannēs “John”

Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee.

Ἰωάννης Iōannēs “John”

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but thy disciples fast not?

Ἰωάννου Iōannou “of John”

Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,

Ἰωάννης Iōannēs “John”

Jesus answered and said to them, Go and show John again those things which ye hear and see:

Ἰωάννῃ Iōannē “to John”

And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? a reed shaken with the wind?

Ἰωάννου Iōannou “than John”

And from the days of John the Baptist, until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

Ἰωάννου Iōannou “of John”

For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

Ἰωάννου Iōannou “John”

For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a demon.

For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.

And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them concerning John the Baptist.

Ἰωάννου Iōannou “John”

The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or from men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, if we shall say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did ye not believe him?
