Herod, along with many others, wondered who Jesus really was. Unable to accept Jesus' claim to be God's Son, many people made up their own explanation for His power and authority. Herod thought that Jesus was John the Baptist come back to life, while those who were familiar with the Old Testament thought He was Elijah. Others believed that Jesus was a teaching prophet in the tradition of Moses, Isaiah, or Jeremiah. Today people still have to make up their minds about Jesus. Some think that if they can name what He is-prophet, teacher, good man-they can weaken the power of his claim on their lives. BUT WHAT THEY THINK DOES NOT CHANGE WHO JESUS IS.
