Matthew could be implying that Jesus has heard: (1) what John’s disciples told him about how Herod executed John (see [14:12](../14/12.md)). Alternate translation: [having heard the news about John’s death]; (2) what Herod was saying about how Jesus must be John the Baptist raised from the dead (see [14:2](../14/02.md)).

ὁ Ἰησοῦς & κατ’ ἰδίαν

¬the Jesus & by himself

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo

ἐκεῖθεν

from_there

Matthew does not state where Jesus was when he heard, so your translation should not identify exactly where Jesus was.

Alternate translation: [from where he was] or [from the place where he heard this]

Here, the phrase on foot means that the crowds walked. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [by walking]
