'''Herod Philip I''' (ca. 27 BC - 33 AD)<ref>Kokkinos, The Herodian Dynasty, p. 237</ref> was the son of [[Herod the Great]] and [[Mariamne (third wife of Herod)|Mariamne II]], the daughter of [[Boethusians|Simon Boethus]] the [[Kohen Gadol|High Priest]] (Mark 6:17). For a brief period he was his father's [[heir]]. |

Depending on the source, he was also [[Herod II Boethus]], the husband of [[Herodias]] and the father of [[Salome]]. The prevalent view is that Herod Philip II and Herod II Boethus were probably one and the same man - they are both recorded as sons of Herod I and Mariamne II and husbands of Herodias. |

==Life and marriage== |
|||
Herod the Great's execution of his [[Hasmonean]] sons, Alexander and [[Aristobulus IV]] in 7 BC, left the latter's daughter Herodias [[orphan]]ed and a minor. Herod engaged her to Herod II Boethus/Herod Philip I, her half-uncle, and her connection to the Hasmonean bloodline supported her new husband's right to succeed his father. |
|||
As [[Josephus]] reports in ''[[Jewish Antiquities]]'' (Book XVIII, Chapter 5, 4):<blockquote>Herodias, [...], was married to [[Herod II Boethus|Herod]], the son of Herod the Great by [[Mariamne (third wife of Herod)|Mariamne]], the daughter of Simon the High Priest. [Herod II and Herodias] had a daughter, Salome...<ref>[http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/2848 W. Whiston translation at Project Gutenberg]</ref></blockquote> |
|||
This marriage led to opposition to the marriage from [[Antipater III]], Herod the Great's eldest son, and so Herod demoted Herod II Boethus to second in line to the succession. Antipater's execution in 4 BC for plotting to poison his father seemed to leave Herod II Boethus , now Herod I's eldest surviving son, as first in line, but his mother's knowledge of the poison plot yet failure to stop it led to his being dropped from this position in Herod I's will just days before he died. |
|||
==Divorce== |
|||
<p>Herodias married Philip's half-brother, [[Herod Antipas]]. According to [[Josephus]]: |
|||
<blockquote>Herodias took upon her to confound the laws of our country, and divorced herself from her husband while he was alive, and was married to Herod Antipas<ref>[http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/2848 W. Whiston translation at Project Gutenberg]</ref></blockquote> |
|||
It was this proposed marriage that [[John the Baptist]] opposed (Matt. 14: 3-5, Luke 3:18-20). [[Book of Leviticus|Leviticus]] 18:16 says it is unlawful for a man to see his brother's wife naked, which meant that John was right and the match was illegal under [[Moses|Mosaic]] law. |
|||
The [[Gospel of Matthew]] indicates that John was executed because he criticized this marriage (Matt 14:3-12). Josephus does not specifically say this but the two events, the marriage and the execution (and the resulting war with [[Aretas IV Philopatris]], [[Rulers of Nabatea|King of the Nabataeans]])), do appear to be linked. (Josephus, Antiquities 18:116-119) |
|||
<p>Philip had lived in [[Rome]] with Herodias as a private citizen<ref>Merrill Chapin Tenney, Walter M. Dunnett, 'New Testament Survey', Pub. by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing (1985)</ref> and therefore survived his father's deathbed purges. [[Herod Antipas]] and his other remaining half-brothers shared [[Iudaea Province|Judaea]] out amongst them. After that Herod Philip I slipped into such anonymity that, less than 30 years later, two of the [[Gospel]]s ([[Gospel of Mark|Mark]] and [[Gospel of Matthew|Matthew]]) confused him with Antipas' other half-brother, [[Herod Philip II]]. |
