We have two slightly different stories about John the Baptist, one in the New Testament gospels and another in the writings of the first century Jewish historian Josephus.
Both sources agree that John was arrested for publicly criticising the marriage of Herod Antipas to his own brother's former wife, but the gospels place the arrest and execution of John at the beginning of Jesus' mission, in 29 CE. Josephus tells us that the wedding actually took place in 34 CE and resulted in Aretas, king of Nabatea, attacking Herod Antipas in 36 CE.
