Who ruled Israel while Jesus was alive?

Augustus Caesar was the ruler of the Roman Empire at the time of the birth of Jesus. Tiberias was emperor throughout the time of his ministry. Herod the Great was the ruler of Judea, Samaria, Galilee, Perea and Idumea. After the death of Herod in 4 BC, his kingdom was divided and his heirs became tetrarchs (or ruler of a quarter). Salome I, (not the Salome who asked for the head of John the Baptist)), was Herod's sister and ruled the cities of Jabneh, Azotas, Phaesalis) Herod Archelaus ruled Judea, Samaria and Idumea until he was dismissed in 6 CE by Augustus Caesar. This region then came under the rule of Quirinius the governor of Syria and prefects were appointed by the emperor to rule the new province named Iudea (basically a Roman spelling for Judea). Quirinius was governor from 6 AD to 12 AD. Coponius ruled from 6 AD to 9 AD. Pontius Pilate ruled from 26 AD to 36 AD. Herod Antipas ruled as tetrarch of Galilee and Perea from 4 BC until he was dismissed by Caligula in 39 AD. Philip the Tetrarch inherited the northeastern portion of his father's kingdom: Gaulanitus and rebuilt Caesaria Philippi (named after himself). The only other significant territory was the Decapolis which was a group of ten cities that were essentially Roman colonies and self-ruling.

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.
