- A survey of the children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren of Herod the Great. This is part of a class in New Testament Bible Backgrounds at South Florida Bible College. These and other classes can be viewed at johnstevenson.net/
I'm so blessed to hear this teaching to the end, thank you so much Great Man of God for this insight 🙏🙏
This is really helpful I have religious education this helps a lot around that for homework thxx
Fascinating to put into perspective.
I’ve been looking for this information for soooo long and so glAd to finally find it.
I am so obsessed with Herodian history
Obscessed with Jackals & foxes ? Said Jesus "Go tell that Fox"
Yep a group of European + Jewish people descend from him
@@laneyljk yep.. Big FaX
They were Roman citizens, that citizenship was given to Herod by Gaius Julius Caesar, therefore their family names were Julius Herodius
I would appreciate a few book recommendations on this subject.
My primary source is Josephus and his Antiquities. It is available for free on the Internet. Hoehner has a book entitled Herod Antipas that is good. Then there is my own book, Ancient History: A Framework for the Bible -- www.amazon.com/dp/0982208677
The full family tree image used could be borrowed to hand to a class?
Yes indeed. Send me an email at JohnStevenson@Bellsouth.net and I can send you either a jpeg photo or even the entire Powerpoint. Make sure to state specifically the series you wish (in this case, it is from a college class I teach in NT Backgrounds).
Festus and Agrippa met with Paul together, Felix was already gone
You are probably correct.
@@DrJohnStevenson enjoyed the content very informative
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)
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.
@@DrJohnStevenson I guess the word "pompous" came from his name "Pompey"
@@blessingpereye1258 - I never put the two together, but you might actually have a point. It should be noted that Pompey was his last name and that it was actually a plebian name since he was a "new man" from the ranks of the commoners.
Wow good job
Was there any reason you missed out the story of Archelaus, the ethnarch of Judea?
No special reason. We are not given all that many details about him and he was removed by A.D. 6..
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.
Though the Romans were monogamous with their family structures, but they could sin by laying with prostitutes, and prostitution was forbidden in the Torah, but not by the Romans who were Pantheonistic.
Chaesarea it would be transliterated into Engish from Latin. See car is Latin is char. See the name Cae-sar is Chae-sar. Though sounds similar to the German form Kaiser.
Latin C makes a ch sound not a se sound. see luci is Luche, but che as in cheek.
I learn this when I learned how in Latin Richard which is Rikhart but in Latin pronounced Re-chhard. See compound name Riki Rikr harthr hart, or Hard in Saxon or Reichhart in German.
I thought Herodias’ brother was Herod of Chalcis, and the son of Herod of Chalcis was Aristobulus. Am I wrong?
You are not wrong; I only put up part of the family tree (I could not fit it all into the slides). Here is a link to someone who has been a bit more detailed: static.wixstatic.com/media/655590_4a7e4845e4d64f5aae1b2809875e996f~mv2.png
@@DrJohnStevenson by the way, your video is excellent. I am learning a lot. Thank you.
What do you think of the theory that Saulus is "Paul" and that's why he talks about Bernice and Drucilla in his letters?
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.
@@DrJohnStevenson Dr Taylor Marshall says Paul was a Herodian.
In Romans 16:11 he does say "greet my kinsman Herodion"
I was just wondering if you have seen evidence of that.
Sorry i explained it so badly.
@@ChristinaFromCZcams 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).
Wait! You said Aristobulus was killed, how did he get to marry?
He was already married with children when he was killed.
Revelation 2:10
The devil shall put you in prison
The name Herod biblically refers to the Gentiles Beware of the leavens of the Pharisees (Jews) & Herod (Gentiles) , the leavens of the LAW/FAITH resp,
Wicked King Herod was an Idumea (Isau) He claimed to be King of the Jews but he never was a Jew.He killed all the male child two years and below during Jesus birth. Thus fulfilled Jeremiah 31:15
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."
@@DrJohnStevenson Yes Dr you're correct I can see John Hyrcanus made a terrible mistake in incorporated Idumea into Jewish estate in 134 BC. Israel faces the ripple effect of that transaction even today.
