This is more misdirection to divert you away from my earlier post #154. Please read that post.

>>>Who was it then that killed the apostles?<<<

For starters, Herod killed James, brother of John. Herod was a descendent of the evil Herod that wanted to kill the baby Jesus.

"Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people." (Acts 12:1-4 KJV)

Who was Herod, and where was James killed?

Philip

Good point. We were told earlier that Babylon which is "Jerusalem" slaughtered the apostles and prophets and now it is Rome.
