Descrição:
Herod the Great and Jesus Chronological, Historical and Archaeological EvidenceGérard GERTOUX
On the death of Herod, his sons sought the endorsement of Caesar Augustus to legitimize their royalty, as did Herod himself. Josephus explains that in the past: Caesar received the boys [in 20 BCE] with the greatest consideration. He also gave Herod the right to secure in the possession of his kingdom whichever of his offspring he wished (Jewish Antiquities XV:343). Herod being dead on 2 Shebat (26 January 1 BCE), the first year of effective reign of his sons could start on Nisan 1 (March 24, 1 BCE). Herod Philip did as
his father. The coins (below) minted from his first year of reign in 1 BCE are dated year 3, written L Γ in Greek29, which referred to Herod's testament made at the end of the legation of Varus in 4 BCE, a year being considered as an accession year (without there having been co-regency).
