Isaiah (Hebrew: יְשַׁעְיָהוּ, Greek: Ἠσαΐας, Ēsaïās) was a prophet in the 8th-century BC Kingdom of Judah. Jews and Christians consider the Book of Isaiah a part of their Biblical canon; he is the first listed (although not the earliest) of the neviim akharonim, the later prophets. Many of the New Testament teachings of Jesus refer to the book of Isaiah.
The tale of Salome comes from the New Testament of the Christian Bible.<br/><br/>

During the reign of Herod Antipas (4 BCE–49 CE)—the seventh son of Herod the Great, King of Judea—John the Baptist had been arrested and imprisoned for denouncing the king’s marriage to his sister-in-law, Herodias because both were divorcees.  John’s life was spared due to his popularity in Judea.<br/><br/>

However, at a royal banquet, Herodias’ daughter Salome performed an exotic sensual dance that so entranced Herod that he offered her anything from his kingdom that she wanted.
She asked for the head of John the Baptist.
Joel (Hebrew: יואל‎) was a prophet of ancient Israel, the second of the twelve minor prophets and the author of the Book of Joel. He is mentioned by name only once in the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament, in the introduction to his own brief book, as the son of Pethuel (Joel 1:1).<br/><br/>

The dates of his life are unknown; he may have lived anywhere from the 9th century BCE to the 5th century BCE, depending on the dating of his book. The book's mention of Greeks has not given scholars any help in dating the text since the Greeks were known to have had access to Judah from Mycenaean times. However, the book's mention of Judah's suffering and to the standing temple has led some scholars to place the date of the book in the post-exilic period, after the construction of the Second Temple. Joel was originally from Judah / Judea, and, judging from its prominence in his prophecy, was quite possibly a prophet associated with the ritual of the Jerusalem temple.
