CHAP. IV. How, after the death of Tiberius, Caius made Agrippa King over the Jews, and punished Herod with perpetual Banishment.
BUt Tiberius, having Reigned about two and twenty years, died. Caius succeeding him in the Empire, presently gave a 1.1Agrippa the King∣dom of Judea, and made him King over the Te∣trarchies both of Phillip and Lysanias. Besides, not long after he gave him Herods Tetrarchy al∣so, having condemned Herod to perpetual banish∣ment, being together with Herodias his Wife de∣servedly punished for divers enormities: (This was the Herod that was present at our Saviours Passion:) Josephus is a witness of these things also. Moreover in this Emperours time Philo flourished, a man highly esteemed of for his Lear∣ning by many, not onely among us but also among forreigners. He was indeed by Original extract an Hebrew, inferiour to none of those that were illustrious in dignitie at Alexandria. Moreover what and how great pains he bestowed about di∣vine matters, and in the learning of his own Na∣tion, it is to all evidently manifest. Besides, how excellent he was at Philosophy and Humane Lear∣ning it is needless to relate; for he is said to have excelled all of his own time in the Platonick and Pythagorean Philosophy which he much affected.
Notes
a 1.1
Caius Cae∣sar about the begin∣ning of his reign made Agrippa King, first of Tracho∣nitis, which was Phillips Tretrarchy. After that, when He∣rod, Te∣trarch of Galilee, by the per∣swasion of his wife Herodias, went to Rome to get the Re∣gal dignity of Caius the Emperour, Caius took from Herod his Tetrarchy of Galilee, and gave it to Agrippa. At length, after the death of Caius, Claudius confirmed the Kingdom to Agrippa which Caius had given him, and gave him also Judea and Samaria, which his Grandfather Herod had. And so the whole Kingdom of Herod the great was possessed by Agrippa. See Philo in Flaccum & in Legat. ad Caium sub sinem; and Joseph. Hist. B. 18. so that Eusebius is mistaken, in that he says, Caius made Agrippa King of Jude••. Vales.
