His stepdaughter (Salame) pleased him with her erotic dance so much he promised her, in front of witnesses, to give her anything she asked - up to even half his Kingdom if she wanted it. Salame asked her mother (Herod's unbiblical wife) what she should request. She hated John for proclaiming her marriage immoral so she instructed her to demand his head be presented to her on a silver platter.

www.bible-reviews.com Not sure how erotic the dance was. Bible-based movies tend to be very..."free", and usually considerably more vulgar, with their interpretation of Biblical events. In any event: the Bible certainly gives no indication that the dance of Salome was erotic. It only informs us that the dance pleased Herod and his guests. -
