Read as you listen: Chuck Smith on Acts 12

Read the opening of his teaching

Shall we turn now in our Bibles to Acts 12.

Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church (12:1).

There are just a lot of Herods in the Bible and it is a little difficult to keep them all straight. In fact, I don't expect you to keep them all straight. This particular Herod was Herod Agrippa I. He was the grandson of Herod the Great who was the Herod at the time of the birth of Jesus. Herod the Great had ten wives. One of his wives, Miriam, had a son, Aristopollis that was murdered by Herod the Great, as was Miriam. He felt that they were conspiring against them and so he murdered them both.
