Show Notes

When Jesus was proclaimed King of the Jews, there was another King on the throne. Herod the Great was one of the most powerful men in the world at that time. Given a mandate by Caesar himself, Herod accomplished some of the most amazing building projects in antiquity. He is also the arch-villain of the opening chapters of the Gospel. Though he styled himself a king like Solomon, God saved his Son from his grasp, and revealed him to be a king like Pharaoh - and he shared a similar end.
