King of Judea 37BC - 4BC?? BC=before christ, so how come he ruled BC but tried to have Jesus killed shortly after birth? Or am I missing something obvious?

jesus was born before year zero,its something to do with the way the origional religiouse historians counted back ,basicly one of the emporors had a name change half way through his rule and they forgot to add these years on there calculations to determine the year of his birth

it took the cult of jesus a long time to catch on basicly and the early roman church screwed the maths up with there plan to base all time on ad or bc.

There you go I knew it would be something obvious! Cheers Mark, great piece of info

I think the calendar was changed at some point too, so that might account for a day missing somewhere! :lol:
