** There appears to have been some confusion as to who was ruler northeast of Decapolis upon Herod the Great's death. Herod the Tetrarch (Herod Phillip II) ruled northeast of Decapolis, while Herod II (Herod Phillip I) was married to Herodias. I'm sorry for any confusion, as even I was confused in keeping the many members of this family straight. **

This is Lesson 8 of our study of the Book of Matthew. In this episode, we cover Matthew 2:19-23 and discuss the death of Herod, as well as Joseph, Mary and Jesus returning to Israel, settling in a city called Nazareth.
