“And he has called you a fox,” Caiaphas added, significantly. “He doesn’t claim to be one himself, does he?” “He is guilty of treason, and it is for you, his ruler, to sentence him.” “Not I. The blood of kings is sacred. Pahul, make haste!” The butler, reappearing, held in his hand the glittering white vestment of a candidate. The tetrarch took it and held it in air.
Fountains of milk shall spring from the rocks; men shall sleep, well satisfied, among the wine-presses. The people shall prostrate themselves before Thee, and Thy reign shall be eternal, O Son of David!" The tetrarch suddenly recoiled from the opening of the pit; the mention of the existence of a son of David seemed to him like a menace to himself.
The port column was led by the Whirlwind, followed by Myngs and Moorsom, which ships were to patrol to the northward of Zeebrugge; and the Tetrarch, also to escort the Ostend block ships. Every craft was towing one or more coastal motor boats, and between the columns were motor launches.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done: and he was much perplexed, because that it was said by some, that John was risen from the dead; 8 and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets was risen again. 9 And Herod said, John I beheaded: but who is this, about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
"In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea, and of the region of Trachonitis the word of God came unto John." "Herod had sent forth, and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison, for Heredias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her." With this compare Joseph.
And when they had agreed upon the terms of peace Herod, the tetrarch erected a rich tent on the midst of the passage, and made them a feast there. Artabanus also, not long afterward, sent his son Darius as an hostage, with many presents, among which there was a man seven cubits tall, a Jew he was by birth, and his name was Eleazar, who, for his tallness, was called a giant.
I have found the buried treasure of Herod!" Searching for buried treasure was a veritable mania among the Romans. The tetrarch swore that no treasure was hidden in that spot. "What is concealed there, then?" the proconsul demanded. "Nothing that is, only a man a prisoner." "Show him to me!" The tetrarch hesitated to obey, fearing that the Jews would discover his secret.
At one side of the tetrarch's pavilion were the tables at which were seated his priests and officers; also a number of persons from Jerusalem, and the more important men from the Grecian cities. At the table on the left of the proconsul sat Marcellus with the publicans, several friends of the tetrarch, and various representatives from Cana, Ptolemais, and Jericho.
What hath so defiled them that ablution doth take place in the eyes of the shouting mob?" "A mystery yea. But look you aye, look you! To mystery is added yet more mystery! Herod the Tetrarch doth approach Pilate. He smileth until the rising light doth sparkle on his teeth. He holdeth forth his hand! Will the Procurator whose hands are yet wet from their strange cleansing give him greeting?
His work must be extended to the uttermost ends of the earth." For a moment Antipas appeared lost in thought, as one who sees a vision. Then he said: "His power over men is indeed great. In spite of myself, I admire him!" "Then set him free!" But the tetrarch shook his head. He feared Herodias, Mannaeus, and unknown dangers.
