Exegesis
The demonstrative subject houtos {οὗτος | hoú-tos} ‘this one’ followed by the passive verb egerthē {ἠγέρθη | ē-gér-thē} ‘was raised’ forms the climactic assertion, with the passive voice implying an unnamed divine agency. In English, the participle is best rendered as a temporal clause (“when Herod heard”), the imperfect as a simple past (“he said”) for stylistic smoothness, and the aorist passive as a present perfect (“has been raised up” / “has come back to life”) to convey the present relevance of the reported resurrection.
In context — Mark 6:16
But when Herod heard, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised up .”
