Herod's Tomb Located

Anyone who studied Matthew with us a few years ago - or anyone who is familiar with the Christmas story - remembers Herod. He was the king who tried to trick the Magi into giving him the location of the infant king of Israel... and then slaughtered young male jews when they failed to return. Now archeologists have found Herod's tomb.

Herod's tomb, if this proves true, contains a lovely sarcophagus, a coffin. Grave robbers long ago claimed his dried bones. Ashes to ashes; dust to dust. No remnant of Great Herod. What has been found, however, is this lovely box with floral motif- said to be very rare for its day.
