'''Herod II''' (c27 BCE - 33 AD) was a member of the [[:Category:Herodians (subject)|Herodian dynasty]], the son of [[:Category:Herod the Great (subject)|Herod the Great]] and his wife [[:Category:Mariamne II (subject)|Mariamne II]].

==Biography==
Herod II was born from the marriage of [[:Category:Herod the Great (subject)|Herod]] with [[Mariamne II (subject)|Mariamne II]], who was the daughter of the High Priest [[:Category:Simon Boethus (subject)|Simon Boethus]].
 
Around 1/2 CE Herod II married his niece [[:Category:Herodias (subject)|Herodias]]. For some time it seemed that Herod II could inherit [[:Category:Herod the Great (subject)|Herod the Great]]'s heritage, or a significant portion of it. The alleged involvement of his mother in [[:Category:Antipater II (subject)|Antipater II]]'s poison plot against [[:Category:Herod the Great (subject)|Herod the Great]] led to his being left out. Herod II survived the purges as he and Herodias lived in Rome as private citizens; around 14 CE they had a daughter [[:Category:Salome (subject)|Salome]].
 
In 34 CE, Herodias divorced from Herod II and married his half-brother, [[:Category:Herod Antipas (subject)|Herod Antipas]], who had been made tetrarch of Galilee and Perea.
 
==Herod II in ancient sources==
 
====Josephus, Jewish Antiquities====
 
Ant XVIII 5, 1 -- When Herod [Antipas]  was once at Rome, he lodged with Herod [II], who was his brother indeed, but not by the same mother; for this Herod was the son of the high priest Sireoh's daughter. However, he fell in love with Herodias, this last Herod's wife, who was the daughter of Aristobulus their brother, and the sister of Agrippa the Great.
 
Ant XVIII 5, 4 -- Herodias was married to Herod [II], the son of Herod the Great, who was born of Mariamne [II], the daughter of Simon the high priest, who had a daughter, Salome; after whose birth 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], her husband's brother by the father's side, he was tetrarch of Galilee.
 
====Gospel of Mark, Matthew, and Luke====
Mark 6:17, Matthew 14:3, Luke 3:19 --  Herodias [was] the wife of [Herod Antipas]'s brother, Philip [here, Mark and Matthew apparently confused Herod II with Herod Philip, as Luke 3:19 probably realized, dropping he reference to "Philip"].
