Question:<\/h2>\n

I’ve been trying to study the role of Herod The Great and those of his family tree because of the impact they played in the Scriptures.\u00a0\u00a0Are you aware of a good web site where I can find visuals of Herod’s family tree? Along with this, I’m trying to figure Herod’s bloodline. Does it have some of the bloodlines from the 12 tribes of the Old Testament?<\/p>\n\t

Answer:<\/h2>\n

Probably the clearest chart that I’ve seen of this messy family can be found at the bottom of “The Herod’s<\/a>.” I particularly like this chart because it gives verse references. There are some errors, such as the claim that Herod Agrippa I died of worms gained by eating too much raw fish. So it would need to be cleaned up before use. A more colorful, but messy chart can be found at “Herod’s Family<\/a>.” This chart includes more of the family, but following all the remarriages gets mindboggling.<\/p>\n

Herod the Great was\u00a0the second son of Antipater the Idumean<\/a>. Thus primarily this family descends from Esau and the nation of Edom. His mother, Cypros, was a Nabatean, an Arab nation. For the most part, they had no Jewish ancestry, but they officially adopted the Jewish religion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
