THE LAST JEWISH KING.
Judsan Rulers from the Birth of Christ
To tho Destruction of Jerusalem.


In the year b. c., the year which
modern chronologers believe to have been
that Of the birth Of Christ. Herod the
Great, the last ruler but two who ever bore
the title OF King OF the Jews, died. Judes
had been conquered by Pompey the Great
and made Roman province, in the veal
&c b. {. This conqueror had made Hyrca
nus, high priest OF Jerusalem, Ethnarck
of the province, but, after the overthrow
of P0mpey, IS b. c., julius Caesar made
Antipater governor Of Judea with the
title of ProcuratOr The sOE Of the latter
HerOd, succeeded him, and, through the
favor of Mark Antony, was made King OF
Judea by decree of the Roman Senate
40 Il. c. When Herod died, his kingdom
was divided among his sons, Archelaus,
Philip and Herod Antipas, each having tho
title of tetrarch. Archelaus ruled Judea,
and subsequently, received from the En-
peror Augustus the title OF Ethnarch. and
was promised tue royal dignity If ha
reigned successfully, but ne never really
had the title Of King In A. d. he was
banshed the kingdom by Augustus,
and Judea was again attached to the
Roman province OF Syria, and was ruled by
Roman procuratoTs. PoAtius Plate was
one Of these, who was appointed about
the year 26, and served ten years.
In A d. Al. Her6d Agrippa J., a
grandson of Herod the Great, was Installed
in the kingdom Of his grandfather by
the Roman Emperor Claudius, and re-
ceived the title OF King. In Il he died,
and a Roman procuratOr again held rule
