For those of you that know the New Testament, Herod was the villain in the Gospel of Matthew’s version of Jesus’ birth. The Magi follow a star to Judea and consult King Herod asking where the King of the Jews has been born…referring to Jesus, not Herod. Herod sees this as a threat to his rule, so according to the story, he orders every male child in Bethlehem under the age of 2 to be killed. But besides a baby-killing tyrant, what do we know about the historical Herod the Great? This episode will examine some of the biggest building projects sponsored by Herod: The Jerusalem Temple, Masada, Herodium, and Caesarea.
Read more about King Herod the Great on Patheos.

I could listen to Andrew talk all day and often do
I could listen to him over dinner and a bottle of wine. LoL
...maybe a bath, some music and a comedic break with a cat.
I am glad to see I am not the only one falling prey to his charms as a super smart man with such a calm and soothing voice. Oops, my fan girl is showing...
I think Patheos should have booked more episodes!
You were predestined to be different(Romans 8:29), he who has an ear to hear, let him hear(Mark 4:9).
HALLELUYAH!(PRAISE YE YAH!)
Herod is such a wild character if all the stories about him are to be believed. Great episode even though I’m sad y’all skipped the Hasmoneans
Its not biblical though. Its only canonical in Catholics. Still a missed oppurtunity.
@@josephdanieljirehdimacali4418 Yeah, I had a Hasmonean episode planned, but it fell through in production. My thought is that future potential seasons will fill in all the gaps (I also skipped the Exodus, Saul, the return from Persia, etc.).
@@josephdanieljirehdimacali4418 Its not biblical? That's relative i.e. Following the masoretic text of the Rabbinic Hebrew or Protestant Bible - for Christians a Northern Eurocentric perspective. In the oriental and eastern church traditions there are eight different canons. Personally, if I was a believer, I might think the Ethiopians had a point with the book of Enoch, given its cited in the New Testament epistle of Jude.
@@josephdanieljirehdimacali4418 it's biblical for every christian except protestants.
@@josephdanieljirehdimacali4418 It's biblical for christians except later protestant cults who took it out of the bible.
I hoped there was an episode about the maccabean revolt.
This series is getting through the history at a cracking pace.
Why has the series skipped over 500 years of history?
This entire series has been fascinating - I look forward to each episode. Thank you, as always. :)
I just saw this come up on my feet as I am a recent subscriber. I totally love the content I've heard so far. I actually wished the segments were longer. Especially this one I haven't even heard it yet but I can tell you hands down I can listen to stuff about how it all day. At the very least a half hour segment would have done a little Justice.
Another excellent episode!
I have been loving this series, I would watch videos twice as long, just saying in case you are trying to cut these back for time.
Fine job. More please, sir 🙏
Great stuff!
This series has been great so far! I am curious how you decide what to cover since you aren't really following a continuous historical line. What I mean is, although you are mostly following a chronological order, you are jumping between various sections of the history that don't lead directly from one to the other. Regardless you do a great job giving a good overview of the history with the examples you use. Are you picking topics with the most archeological evidence that can be discussed? Or just specific points in the history that you feel are the most relevant? Something else?
This is great content.
I like that little clip you put in there from Game of Thrones,,,”you’re a sharp little thing aren’t you”haha
I just love this content. Informative, straight to the point, honest and unbiased, as much as humanely possible. What's not to love?
I would love to have you on an upcoming online discussion forum series of talks.
"It is better to be Herod's pig than his son". What a wit!!! 😄
While this may be a bit off to the side of where the series is going, it would be great if you could do an episode on Herod Agrippa, the Herod with the biggest balls, Caligula's buddy and uncle Claudius' hostage negotiator.
Someone please help! In the playlist of 'excavating the history of the Bible'- video 9 was the lead up to Babylonian exile of the elites, video #10 appears to be a tangent discussing the rise of the Hebrew language and now #11 is about Herod? What the heck happened to the videos discussing the Babylonian exile and after that? How did we jump to King herod? Am I missing a place to find content in this series?
Was wondering the same
I truly love these videos, the channel, everything. But... Wait a moment, what happened during the exile and afterwards? As far as I know, the exile in Babylon was a turning point in Israeli history, when the Hebrew scriptures were written and compiled, why hasn't this been covered? I'm really curious to know your take on this...
Is this series no longer going in chronological order? Not that I mind, I'm just curious.
Yup its a big time skip. They skip Persia and Maccabenean revolt.
Great video! I have been wondering who he was ever since the video on Masada!
Is it just me or Herod has 3 eyes on his thumbnail
Woah...
Thanks alot now I can't look at it the same...
Is there any archaeological evidence of what the people looked like? I’m interested in the images used to represent the people.
wait a minute... if Herod died in 4 BC how did he order the killing of all male children after the magi showed up and asked him about Jesus’ birth? am I missing something?
That the Bible is not exactly most accurate with dates?..
While that is often true, in this case it's not the Bible's fault. The Bible obviously never says "Jesus was born in 1 AD".
This discrepancy between Herod dying in 4 BCE and Jesus' birth being dated to 4 years later, is the fault of the guy who etsablished that date, a monk named Dionysius Exiguus who lived in the 6th century CE. He just made a computational error and got the year of Jesus' birth wrong. But his count of the years became customary, and so we've ended up with Jesus technically being born before "Jesus' birth".
Historians agree Jesus was born in 4 BC.
Cause Jesus wasnt specifically born in 1 ad. Historians think he was born in 4 bc. Blame the one who made the calendar
Same thought. He should add a note to that for clarity
I don't remember if I have been to the Herodium but I have been to the other locations.
The Jayroosalaam?
@@rustyspurs771 The wailing wall, Masada and Caesarea.
Where did the resources (men, money) come from so that King Herod could carry out such monumental constructions?
Jews were extraordinarily rich back in the days. Most Jews were bankers. Jews excelled in the banking institutions

The word herod appears 46 times in the NT. It is reference to 5-6 different ones. the heads/horns/crowns etc in Rev 12 are a reference to the herodian dynasty.
"Augustus" wasn't loving towards his own people either.
So what was his actual name? "Herod" is a dynastic title and Magnes is a Latin reference to being Herod 1 or Herod The Great.
It seems that the dynastic title was named after Herod, just like Caesar and Augustus at the same period
Herod the great was a Nabatean (Arab), the same people who built the city of Petra in Jordan.
He was half arab half edomite
👍👍👍👍
There are accounts where ancient Jews forced conversion on neighboring peoples. This seems such at odds with current Jewish attitudes towards conversion (discouraging it). Can you discuss this difference?
Herod the great did not try to kill Jesus, his son did - Herod Antipous
Antipas had no power in Bethlehem, he was king of Galilee. It's either Herod the Great or Herod Archelaus
Was he judean peoples front or the peoples front of judea ?
Any scholarly consensus on the whole baby murder stuff?
Most say that it is legendary, since the Gospel of Matthew is the only place that recalls the event. Others say that the Massacre of the Innocents was not out of character for Herod the Great, and not the greatest of his crimes. Also, the small size of Bethlehem at the time means that the number of deaths involved (between 6 and 20 depending on the authors) was not that great, so it was not recorded by historians.
It happened. Just because others didn't mention it doesn't mean it didn't occur..For example Herod masscred jews in the temple and abolished passover but only josephus mentions it. Tacitus, Seutonius, or pliny the elder doesn't mention it.
Hmmm a king of the Jews with an empty tomb you say?
On an actual serious note, if Herod was buried at Herodium, what kinds of explanations would we have for his body being missing? Would political rivals have intentionally desecrated it? Or would something like animals be more likely?
Herod was a symbolic person, and his body could have been destroyed either by the Romans or Jewish rebels
Am I missing something with the dating? How did he died before Jesus was born?
Jesus was born probably right before his death, the 1 AD as date was a little miscalculation made by dyonisus the humble, the monk that first proposed this dating system.
@@astrol4b ok I'll look into that, thanks
@@cleitonfelipe2092 Jesus was born in 4 or 6 BC. Not 0AD. It was just a miscalculation. That is why modern secular history is now changing the dating to:
Before Christ--Before Common Era
Ado Domini--Common Era.
To not only be inclusive to other religous history but also to lessen confusion.
@@josephdanieljirehdimacali4418 wouldn't you skip over the year 0 anyway?
Also, there were a couple more Herods.
Didn’t Herod the Great die in 4BC? That’s four years before Jesus was born, right?
This doesn't feel like a guy who would fear a baby would dethrone and hence murders all babies in his kingdom.
Are you blind. Heord literally masscred everyone who he seemed to oppose his power. It happened. Just because others didn't mention it doesn't mean it didn't occur..For example Herod masscred jews in the temple and abolished passover but only josephus mentions it. Tacitus, Seutonius, or pliny the elder doesn't mention it.
Wait if he died in 4 BC how was he alive to order the babies killed when Jesus was born?
No, Herod the Great had a census conducted for all the people of Judea. The census included, the people of Judea paying a tax to (King Herod). H.
-The time period of when the census existed is an estimation of when ‘Jesus of Nazareth’ was born.
-Listen more closely to the beginning of the video about (the story of the magi asking King Herod where the king of the Jews was born). The magi is referring to the place where ‘Jesus of Nazareth’ was born, not where King Herod was born
The Gregorian calendar is wrong, monks miscalculated the birth date of Jesus
Because Jesus was born in around 6 BC i think.
What’s so Great about Herod the Great? He should be called Herod the Terrible.
My daughter said this exact thing just yesterday while we studied him😂
@@Katy_living_simply Google "Herod the Terrible" and you'll find the same man.
Just like Alexander the Great, AKA Alexander the Accursed: some people are seen differently depending on who you ask.
Herod executed his wife and two sons because they were stubbornly trying to kill him.
They left him no other option.
Are you for real
He played a major part in the battle of Actium, not helping Cleopatra and Marc Antonius.Cleopatra had views on Judea against Herod.She was too greedy
You were predestined to be different(Romans 8:29), he who has an ear to hear, let him hear(Mark 4:9).
HALLELUYAH!(PRAISE YE YAH!)
Andrew: One of the most significant restorations that Herod accomplished was the Tomb of the Patriarchs, a place holy to All the Abrahamic faiths to this day. How could you have left that out? It is a missed opportunity.
Your a very fine narrator, try not to use today's slang "kids" because it to has past. Don't confuse the time, the term "kids" was never used, and nether was "children", in the past. The future might love for it
You claim that Herod's father being an Idumean meant that he was only half Jewish, implying that he was in fact half Jewish from his mother's side. Was his mother Jewish? Wasn't she a non Jewish Arab?
His mother Nabataean , Josephus said the family converted to Judaism two generations before but some historians consider him to be Pagan so this is why he killed his Jewish wife with her children
Reminds me of omen 3 where damien ordered the murder of the new borns to stop the new jesus christ being born.
The massacre of the Innocents is not an historical event, not any mention in Flavius Josephus, it looks like the story of Moses, an imitation
It happened. Just because others didn't mention it doesn't mean it didn't occur..For example Herod masscred jews in the temple and abolished passover but only josephus mentions it. Tacitus, Seutonius, or pliny the elder doesn't mention it.
@@alangervasis He did'nt abolish Passover and executed Pharisees in revolt against him
@@yaelfeldhendler6280 Jesus didn't revolt nobody he died and rose again
I guess he is a devil who hated Jesus!
I found out from Israelite Truth Channel that King 👑 Herod the Great IS BLACK 🖤 Blessings and Hugs 💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕!
How can Herod die 4 BC. He was here during after Christ resurrection and kill James brother of John
Different Herod. If I recall correctly, several of his heirs took his name, including Herod Antipas, Herod Archelaeus, and others. Herod the Great is likely the one featured in the Matthew birth narrative. The Herod you're thinking of was likely Antipas.
There was a miscalculation in the birth of Jesus. Today, most scholars agree that Jesus was born from 6 to 4 BC. Also, Herod the Great, the one from this video, was the father of Herod Antipas, the one who killed John the Baptist.
Herod Antipas was the "King" (actually tetrarch) that ruled over Galilee when John the Baptist was executed and during Jesus' crucifixion. He was the son of Herod the Great.
You are the christ, yes, the great jesus christ prove to me that you're not a fool ...walk across my swimming pool, do it for me and i'll let you go free, come on king of the jews
Allah Akbar
I punch you
