In the first century AD, Herod Antipas, the ruler of Galilee, had imprisoned John the Baptist for publicly criticizing his unlawful marriage to his brother’s wife. During a extravagant banquet celebrating Herod's birthday, his stepdaughter performed a dance that greatly pleased him, leading him to make a rash promise to give her anything she asked.
