Matthew 14:2

He said to his servants, "It is John the Baptist. He has risen from the dead, and that is why such powers are at work in him."In the expression "at the same time," the Gk. word chronos, which refers to sequential time, is not used; instead, kairos is used, which focuses more on the content of the event itself than on the exact time it occurs. The Gospel of Matthew is more of a thematic compilation than a chronological narrative. The theme here is that just as those in Nazareth had a false image of who Jesus was in the previous chapter, Matt. 13:54–58, Herod also had a false image of Jesus. The next paragraph explains the background to why he believed Jesus was John the Baptist.
