Herod’s Gruesome Death

Herod’s Gruesome Death

20Now he was very angry with the Tyrians and Sidonians. So they came to him with one purpose, and after[fn] persuading Blastus, the king’s chamberlain,[fn] they asked for peace, because their country was supported with food from the king’s country. 21So on an appointed day Herod, after[fn] putting on royal clothing and sitting down on the judgment seat, began to deliver a public address to them. 22But the people began to call out loudly,[fn] “The voice of a god and not of a man!” 23And immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down because[fn] he did not give the glory to God. And he was eaten by worms and[fn] died. 24But the word of God kept on increasing[fn] and multiplying.

25So Barnabas and Saul returned to[fn] Jerusalem when they[fn] had completed their[fn] service, having taken along with them[fn] John (who is also called Mark).
