Acts 12:21Weymouth NTSo, on an appointed day, Herod, having arrayed himself in royal robes, took his seat on the tribunal, and was haranguing them; See the chapter |
Now the people of Tyre and Sidon had incurred Herod's violent displeasure. So they sent a large deputation to wait on him; and having secured the good will of Blastus, his treasurer, they begged the king to be friendly with them again, because their country was dependent on his for its food supply.
