Just one point. I don't think the Herod that killed the innocents at the time of the Nativity (Herod the Great) is the same one that Jesus was tried before (Antipas?). There was yet another Herod (Agrippa) that is referred to in Acts.
I'm going by memory so don't beat me up.
Beat you up? Hardly. LOL!
The reason, of course, is that you're right. That's why one should really find a knowledgeable editor before letting anything out into the public square.
Oh, well, I'll fix that on the re-write.
