Israel Museum to Exhibit Reconstructed Tomb in World’s First Exhibition on Biblical King Herod
17th January 2013
Israel’s national museum said Tuesday it will open what it calls the world’s first exhibition devoted to the architectural legacy of biblical King Herod, the Jewish proxy monarch who ruled Jerusalem and the Holy Land under Roman occupation two millennia ago.
The display includes the reconstructed tomb and sarcophagus of one of antiquity’s most notable and despised figures, curators say.

Move along. Nothing to see here. Just another case confirming the historical Biblical record.
I will say it is ironic that his tomb is near Bethlehem where he ordered the slaughter of possibly hundreds of baby boys.
