    Fun side note: Herod was never called the Great, that only appears in the 19th=20th centuries, to set him apart from the other kings the Bible also calls Herod (Agrippa, was called the Great, and probably earned it)

    • @DrJohnStevenson
      @DrJohnStevenson  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Good point. The one person who was called "the great" in his own lifetime was Pompey and that is because he started calling himself by that designation, much to the amusement of others.

      I don't know of which theory you are speaking. Saulus in the New Testament (our English translation says "Saul") also went by the name Paulos (our English translation says "Paul"). There is also a Sergius Paulus mentioned in Acts 13 who shared the same last name as Paul.

      @@ChristinaFromTH-cam Paul calls this person, Herodion, a kinsman. They were evidently both Jewish and possibly related in some way. That happens to be similar to the name "Herod," but that does not mean that this Herodion was necessarily related to Herod the Great. On the other hand, there was a connection to Herod via his steward, Chuzza, whose wife was a follower of Jesus (Luke 8:3).

    Flavius Josephus writes that Herod had many wives at one time. See he remarks it being a custom among the Jewish kings of old, so Herod did likewise.

    • @DrJohnStevenson
      @DrJohnStevenson  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The situation was perhaps a bit more nuanced. The Jews of a few generations before Herod and taken both Samaria, Galilee, and Idumea and forcibly converted the inhabitants to Judaism. This made Herod and his family "semi-Jewish." But you are correct that he was not actually Jewish and it was Rome who gave him the title "King of the Jews."
