The death of Christ did not affect Herod so much as it did Pontious Pilot. As far as Herod was concerned Chrsit was a fly in the oitment and so was glad to get rid of him. Pilot however did not want to give permission for Christ to be crucified and so washed his hands of the whole affare, leaving it up to the people to decicide. He knew that Christ was inocent of the accusations made againt Christ, but he had to keep the peace among the Jews.

Who was the judge that the Romans brought Jesus to?

Jesus was brought from Caiaphas' house to appear before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea. The Jewish leaders charged Jesus with subversion of both Israel and Rome. Two of their charges were designed especially to get Pilate's attention. The first was that Jesus opposed paying taxes to Caesar and that Jesus claimed to be king. Finding no fault in Him, Pilate summoned Jesus into Herod's palace and questioned Him further. In the course of the conversation, Pilate learned Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction. So Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see Him. Herod had Jesus dressed in a robe and sent back to Pilate. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty.

What did Pontius Pilate and Herod Antipas have to do with the death of Jesus?

A:In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and John, Pontius Pilate alone tried Jesus and sentenced him to death, although most unwillingly. In the Gospel of Luke, Pontius Pilate was asked by the religious authorities to try and sentence Jesus but, being unwilling to sentence an innocent man and learning that Herod Antipas was in Jerusalem, sent Jesus to Herod to be sentenced. Herod, in turn, was unwilling to sentence Jesus and so left Pilate with this terrible responsibility.

Was Herod Archelaus king of Judea when Jesus was crucified?

There were several Herod's that ruled in the region where Jesus lived and died. The first was Herod the Great mentioned in Matthew 2:1-16 and Luke 1:5. He was the one who ordered the death of infant boys aged two and under in an attempt to kill Jesus. After his death, his kingdom was divided into three districts by Rome. Herod Archelaus was over Judea, Herod Antipas ruled over Galilee and Peraea and Philip ruled areas east of the Jordan. In Matthew 2:22 Archelaus was mentioned as ruling over Judea after the death of his father, King Herod. The next Herod, Antipas was the one who killed John the Baptizer (Mark 14:3-12), sought to kill Jesus (Luke 13:31) and ultimately had a hand in the death of Jesus (Acts 4:27) Herod Agrippa I was the grandson of Herod the Great and is mentioned at Acts 12:1. He was the last Herod to rule although his son Herod Agrippa II was a prince mentioned later in Acts 25:13. Herod Phillip was mentioned at Matthew 14:3; Mark 6:1, 18 and Luke 3:19. He was also a son of Herod the Great.
