Antipas
   (1.) Herod Antipas, a son of Herod the Great by his Samaritan
   wife Malthace. He was tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea during the
   whole period of our Lord's life on earth (Luke 23:7). He was a
   frivolous and vain prince, and was chargeable with many infamous
   crimes (Mark 8:15; Luke 3:19; 13:31, 32). He beheaded John the
   Baptist (Matt. 14:1-12) at the instigation of Herodias, the wife
   of his half-brother Herod-Philip, whom he had married. Pilate
   sent Christ to him when he was at Jerusalem at the Passover
   (Luke 23:7). He asked some idle questions of him, and after
   causing him to be mocked, sent him back again to Pilate. The
   wife of Chuza, his house-steward, was one of our Lord's
   disciples (Luke 8:3).
   
     (2.) A "faithful martyr" (Rev. 2:13), of whom nothing more is
   certainly known.
