While Paul Was Away Peter heals people in the area of Lydda, Sharon, Joppa (Acts 9:32-43) Peter teaches the household of Cornelius (Acts 10:1-48) Peter reports to the church in Jerusalem (Acts 11:1-18) The church in Antioch (Acts 11:19-26)

The Famine Agabus (Acts 21:10) Contribution collected (Acts 2:44-45; 4:32-36) Sent it with Barnabas and Saul to Jerusalem

The Famine Reign of Claudius The fourth century historian Orosius mentions this famine in Syria which occurred in 46 and 47 A.D.

The Famine Reign of Claudius Suetonius also mentions this famine in ‘Life of Claudius’ chapter 18: “There was a scarcity of food, which was the result of bad harvests that occurred during a span of several years.”

The Famine Reign of Claudius Roman historian Tacitus mentions the famine in his Annals, chapter 11:4 “A vision that came to him at night was the reason charges were filed against the man. In this dream, he claimed to have seen Claudius crowned with a wreath made of wheat, the ears of which were folded downward. And from this vision, he predicted lean harvests to come.”

How Many Herods? Herod the Great (ruled 37-4 B.C.) He’s the guy in the “Christmas” story. Super powerful client king answerable to Rome. Tried to trick the wise men. Killed the babies in Bethlehem (not to mention some of his own sons and wives).

How Many Herods? Herod Archelaus (ruled 4 B.C.-A.D. 6) He was one of Herod the Great’s three sons mentioned in the Bible. He received one-half of his father’s territory, the area surrounding and near Jerusalem (Judea and Samaria). Joseph was unwilling to move Mary and toddler Jesus to Bethlehem after fleeing to Egypt because Bethlehem was in this Herod’s territory and was like his father “the Great.” He got replaced by a Roman procurator less than ten years into his reign; that’s why Pontius Pilate is the man in charge at Jesus’ crucifixion rather than one of the “Herods.”

How Many Herods? Herod Antipas (ruled 4 B.C.-A.D. 39) Jesus called him “the Fox” (Luke 13:32). Received a quarter of his father’s territory (Galilee and Perea). Divorced his first wife and married Herodias, the wife of his brother (who was a different “Herod”). Killed John the Baptist. Pontius Pilate sent Jesus to see this Herod as part of Jesus’ trial since this Herod was visiting Jerusalem at the time Jesus was sentenced to death.

How Many Herods? Herod Philip the Tetrarch (ruled 4 B.C.-A.D. 34) Got the remaining quarter of his father’s territory (north and east of Galilee— mostly ruled over Syrians and Greeks). Married his niece, Salome, the daughter of Herodias (Herod Antipas’s wife-of-sin).

How Many Herods? Herod Agrippa I (ruled A.D. 37-44 [41-44 in Judea]) Grandson of Herod the Great and nephew of Herodias, Herod Antipas’s wife. Eventually ended up ruling over even more territory than did his grandfather, Herod the Great. In the book of Acts he is known as the one who killed James and put Peter in prison (Acts 12:1-5).
