Now Herod The Herod mentioned here is Herod Antipas, a son of Herod the Great. Herod Antipas was a tetrarch, a ruler of a quarter of his father's kingdom, specifically over Galilee and Perea. Historically, Herod Antipas is known for his political cunning and moral weaknesses, which are evident in his interactions with John the Baptist and later with Jesus. His rule is marked by a desire to maintain power and favor with Rome, often at the expense of justice and righteousness. had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias his brother Philip’s wife (1) as a punishment for his rebuke of Herod; (2) to protect him from Herodias' vengeance. (On the statement by Josephus, that it was for political reasons, see Matthew 3:1, note.) His brother Philip's wife. According to Josephus ('Ant.,' 18:05. 4), the first husband of Herodias was "Herod," son of Herod the Great by Mariamne the high priest's daughter, and the daughter of Herodias, Salome, married Philip the tetrarch, who was also the son of Herod the Great by Cleopatra of Jerusalem. Hence many critics (e.g. Ewald; Schurer, I. 2:22) suppose the account in Matthew and Mark to be mistaken, and due to a confusion of Herodias with her daughter. But, although it is curious that two sons of Herod the Great should have been called Philip, yet, in view of their being by different mothers, it cannot be pronounced impossible ("Antipas" and "Antipater" are not precisely identical). Besides, Herod the son of Mariamne would probably have had some other name than that of his father alone. It is noticeable that, in the same context, Josephus speaks also of Antipas by the name Herod only. Greek [Now]γὰρ (gar) Conjunction Strong's 1063: For.
