0:00 Antony's Parthian War
2:12 Herod and Mariamne's Flight
5:19 Herod Returns as King
7:38 The Rebuilding of Jerusalem
9:13 The Anti-Hasmonean Conspiracy
"Herod thought that by bestowing gifts on antony antony would be as favourable to him as he was to cleopatra" yeah man i think cleopatras giving him something better than you can offer
I don't know man, Herod looks like a double-wide surprise
@@geoorge1000 Are you implying that Herod had not that bountiful booty Antony was looking -at- for?
With the wealth Herod gave him Antony could have any sort of queen he desired.
No but, think about this way. Cleopatra is one. Herod can give Anthony (servants of women) endless and endless amounts of what only one Cleo can give him. I 100% get why Herod thought he could win him over. Jewish women too? Almost all of them have no gag reflex!
I had a similar thought only in reverse, "do you really want him to be as favourable to you as he was to her? Because you might be getting a little more than you bargained for with that."
Mariamne being made Queen of Judaea and the proliferation of the Hasmonean Dynasty would be an excellent alternative history.
Some Herods including the last king of Judaea and his coruling son and daughter were descendents of Mariamne. No need for an alternative history.
ikr
Am I the only one imagining Mariamne just being like 'WHAT THE F HEROD, THATS MY CROWN' and it just devolving into a classic mum-dad argument?
I'm sure not, though at that point I was imagining something more like
Herod: So, when are we going to crown my wife?
*Senators look at each other nervously*
Senate: Yeah, about that... We liked your dad. We have no idea what she's like, so...
I hardly expect they had to twist his arm on the subject, but based on what little we saw of him before this, and a lot of what happened after, I also can't really imagine him having come up with the idea himself.
Sam Aronow thank you for your clear-eyed, fact filled narration. you sorted out a particularly tangled time in near East history.
wow, this is like historia civilis but jewish history.

As a fellow Jew i must ask myself why when you said "His uncle Joseph" i saw Joseph Joestar in my head before i even realised that's what i was doing
Crisp, brisk, detailed yet brief, informative and accurate - thank you for presenting history so beautifully!🙏
Bravo, you are making some of the best history videos on youtube. I really like the historia civilis influences as well.
Thank you for your series. Now I have a much better understanding of the historical background of the so-called "New Testament"
Thank you this is good stuff...
To see how all this ties together...first seeds planted in the days of Maccabees and now to Imperial Rome...
If Alexandra had prevailed over Herod, everything would be different.
I have recently discovered your channel and used this video to complete an essey about Hedros. That probably saved my grade.
I stayed for your videos. Your channel has a such high level of quality it's a shame it only has 14k subs. You deserve way more.
This was a great teaching 🙏🏾✌🏾
It's amazing how this directly leads into the rise of christianity
It's CONNECTED but it can't 'lead' to Christianity, at least not how I am reading your comment.
I had no to big to do with Christianity, since Jesus opposed the rulers in power throughout his ministry.
Thank you.
Thank you
Mariamne was a hostage, not a queen.
So interesting
12:41 I think that, on the hills of manchuria is a nice tough
Herod built the walls of Masada and made the Judeans pay for it!
אני וחברי עשינו עבודה בהיסטוריה וביססנו אותה על הכיבוש של הורדוס על ירושלים, אך היא אמרה לנו שזה לא נכון ולא קרה והורדוס לא כבש את ירושלים. איך אנחנו יכולים לשכנע אותה? ישנם עוד מקורות חוץ מוויקיפדיה?
Mariamne... Joseph? Too early for JC but the parallels are uncanny
Both just common names.
Those were common names then.
@@elyssa-vagabunda4239still are Today tbh
When you post text, you leave it up for such a short time, it's impossible to read. I'm surprised you didn't notice this.
Hey can you cite where herod had to present every piece of the old temple in exchange for the new... where is that recorded. And wouldn't that be a third temple
10:30 song name?
What are the parties? Pharisees and Sadducees, yes, but what's gray and orange?
Grey are the Essenes (the same kind of people as the Qumranic Community of Dead Sea Scrolls fame), orange are Beit Shammai Pharisees (the legalists). If you read the Gospels, it's been suggested that the legalistic Pharisees depicted in them are actually those of the Beit Shammai, and they fought with Jesus all the time because he himself was a Beit Hillel radical.
What happened to Herod the So-So?
Where in Torah does it say the High Priest must be at least 20 years old? I know that's the minimum age for men in the army in Torah, but in not finding that same age for the High Priest. Thanks and blessings.
use BC AD plz
Why is Herod called the great if he was so unpopular?
The sea king Sextus Pompey was defeated courtesy of Agrippa
.
Being an avid Hellenist. I doubt Herod had a beard.
What a guy…. Woof!
Nooooooo
Hasmoneans owned
Who exactly diagnosed Herod with major depression? I like the series, but i think you're trying a bit too hard to spice it up.
Why's he considered great?
He restored the kingdom and grew it to its greatest historical extent ever with the "conquest" of Nabatea. Realistically he just convinced them to accept fealty to his crown because he was favored by the Romans and they at this point in time were under heavy suspicion thanks to recently having been too friendly to the Parthians. But most importantly, he built up Judea economically and renovated the temple to its most majestic form. The epithet "The Great" was given to him mostly by Greco-Roman historians, but if you go to Israel today, the majority sort of agree because nearly ALL the symbols of modern Jewish nationalism were his legacy: Masada, the Temple Mount, the Wailing Wall, and basically every ancient city ruin not recently unearthed by archaeology. The Jerusalem of dreams is Herod's Jerusalem.
Is it true that the worms ate him because he gave not the glory to God?
BCE- Before Christ Era
Am I the only one who sees the source of Mary and Joseph mother of the Messiah
Awwwww_wwwwww
So SADUCCEES AND PHARISEES EXISTED HEROD TIME........AND PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH EXISTED......
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
I don’t think there are many mythicists, most of scholarship accepts he existed.
The fact that I accept that some guy named Jesus existed notwithstanding, this is akin to saying that Merlin must have been a real wizard because the island of Britain exists.
Who’s this please???????
Question::::that name that you believe in,have you seen that god before?
You guys out there believe in all other useless gods except JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH,there are signs he existed but look........
ANYONE BELIEVES IN SOMETHING OR SOMEONE SO KEEP BELIEVING WHAT YOU BELIEVE AND WE WILL ALL DIE AND GO 6 FEET AND SEE AND MEET WHAT TRULY EXISTS
Bro take some meds
Anyone who uses BCE gets a down vote.🤮
BCE? stopped watching at that point.
Sounds like a snowflake
Snowflake
@@ulverupnot listening to falsehoods doesn't make you a snowflake
Crying and wailing because a Jewish guy doesn’t use a Christian term
Bravo really like your work
