Israel did not have a king at that time (unless you count Jesus, whose crime displayed on His cross when He was executed was "Rex Iudaeorum", Latin for King of the Jews). The area had been taken over by the Roman Empire. It was governed by Pontius Pilate, who served as prefect of the Roman region of Judea from A.D. 26 until 36.
The initials INRI stand for the Latin phrase "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum," which translates to "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews." These initials were placed on Jesus' cross by Pontius Pilate to indicate the charge against him.
Yes there was a pupet king when Jesus was born his name was Herod.
King Herod's sons were named Herod Antipas, Herod Archelaus, Herod Philip, Herod Agrippa I, and Herod Agrippa II.
King Herod had heard that another King was born; and since there could only be one king he though Jesus had come to depose him. So he wanted to kill Jesus before Jesus could take the kingdom away from him.
pontius pilate. the king was herod
Under the order of Pontius Pilate, after many of the Jews denounced Jesus, Jesus was killed by the Romans. The King at the time was Caesar, but he had no direct role. Herod Antipas was tetrarch of Galliee at the time, but he returned Jesus to Pilate, who reluctantly ordered the crucifixion of Jesus.
Jesus Christ, Judas Iscariot. Mary Magdalene, Pontius Pilate, Caiaphas, Annas, Peter, Simon Zealotes, King Herod
Pontius Pilate gave him this title.
Jesus did not actually meet any kings, except in Luke's Gospel where the account of the trial differs significantly from the other gospels. In this Gospel, Jesus was sent by Pontius Pilate to Herod Antipas, king of Galilee, for judgement.
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.
A:The early Christians knew that they depended very much on the forbearance of the Roman authorities and were careful not to offend the Romans in any of their writings. Each of the gospels had the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, show great reluctance in sentencing Jesus to death. Mark begins by having Pilate offer to free on of his two prisoners, thinking that the Jews would choose Jesus, but they chose Barabbas instead. Matthew elaborates this account by having Pilate wash his hands, to show himself innocent of the crime. John even has Pilate accompany Jesus to the crucifixion and argue with the priests about the sign that called Jesus the king of the Jews. It is in Luke that we have Pilate show his reluctance by calling for Herod Antipas to try Jesus. The reasoning was that Jesus was from Galilee and therefore came under Herod's jurisdiction. For the story to continue, Herod had to send Jesus back to Pilate for trial, which he did.
Pontius Pilate described Jesus as a man who claimed to be a king but did not pose a threat to the Roman Empire. Pilate found no fault in Jesus and tried to release him, but the crowd demanded his crucifixion.
The above is absolutely true, but just to clarify something for you... There was a King involved in the trial of Jesus (King Herod Antipas), but he didn't order the crucifixion. He merely turned Jesus back to Pontius Pilate, saying the responsibility lay with the Roman state.
Jesus wasn't born. But people say it was King Herod. -_-; ANSWER Yes Jesus was born. He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem in Israel. King Herod the Great was ruler at that time appointed by Rome.
