Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo
ὃν ἐγὼ ἀπεκεφάλισα, Ἰωάννην οὗτος ἠγέρθη
whom I beheaded John this /was/_raised
Here, the phrase this one refers directly back to The one whom I beheaded, John. Herod expresses the idea in this way to introduce the person he is talking about and then explain what he thinks has happened to that person. If stating the topic and then referring back to it with the phrase this one would be redundant in your language, you could omit the redundant information. Alternate translation: “The one whom I beheaded, John, has been raised”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ὃν ἐγὼ ἀπεκεφάλισα, Ἰωάννην οὗτος ἠγέρθη
whom I beheaded John this /was/_raised
Herod is implying that Jesus is actually John, who has been raised and now goes by the name Jesus. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “This man Jesus is actually the one whom I beheaded, John, who has been raised” or “The one whom I beheaded, John, this one has been raised and is now called Jesus”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐγὼ ἀπεκεφάλισα
I beheaded
Here Herod implies that he had his soldiers behead John. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: “my soldiers beheaded” or “I had my soldiers behead”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
οὗτος ἠγέρθη
this /was/_raised
See how you expressed the similar phrase in 6:14. Alternate translation: “has been restored to life”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
οὗτος ἠγέρθη
this /was/_raised
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, Herod could be implying that: (1) God did it. Alternate translation: “God has raised this one” (2) John himself did it. Alternate translation: “this one has risen”
6:14-29 The account of John the Baptist’s death, sandwiched between the sending out and the return of the disciples, continues the theme of Jesus’ authority and power (see 6:7, 14). John’s fate and the warning given to the disciples in their missionary charge (6:11) also foreshadowed Jesus’ death. The one greater even than John (1:8) would soon be handed over to religious and political leaders and put to death (8:31; 9:31; 10:33).
