Contextual Overview
15 Everyone was hoping for the Messiah to come, and they wondered about John. They thought, "Maybe he is the Messiah." 16 John's answer to this was, "I baptize you in water, but there is someone coming later who is able to do more than I can. I am not good enough to be the slave who unties his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 17 He will come ready to clean the grain. He will separate the good grain from the straw, and he will put the good part into his barn. Then he will burn the useless part with a fire that cannot be stopped." 18 John said many other things like this to encourage the people to change, and he told them the Good News. 19 John criticized Herod the ruler for what he had done with Herodias, the wife of Herod's brother, as well as for all the other bad things he had done. 20 So Herod added another bad thing to all his other wrongs: He put John in jail.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Added yet this above all,.... This sin to all other sins, and which was of a more flagitious nature; and attended with more aggravating circumstances, especially in the issue of it:
that he shut up John in prison; in the castle of Machaerus, by the instigation of Herodias; :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 14:1-13. âAdded this above all.â To all his former crimes he added this; not implying that this was the âworstâ of his acts, but that this was âoneâ of his deeds, of like character as the others. The event here mentioned did not take place until some time after this, but it is mentioned here to show what was the end of Johnâs preaching, or to âfill outâ the account concerning him.
