The answer is King Herod There was no longer a kingdom of Israel at the time attributed to the birth of Jesus. The southern state of Judah, known to the Romans as Judea, was the homeland of the Jews and had gradually expanded since the time of the Maccabeans to include the former territory of Israel. Both Matthew's Gospel and Luke's Gospel say that Jesus was born during the reign of King Herod the Great. Herod was an Idumean and was imposed on Judea by Roman military might, one reason that he was very unpopular among the Jews.
