Herod left three sons and successors alive: Archelaus, to whom he bequeathed his overall kingdom, [[Herod Antipas]], who became Tetrarch of [[Galilee]]; and Herod Philip, Tetrarch of sundry other lands.<ref name=Livius/><ref name=Greetham1/><ref name=Columbia/> Herod Philip does not come further into the Bible, except that Herod Antipas later married Philip's wife, prompting [[John the Baptist]] to protest that this was unlawful, which landed John in prison. Archelaus could not be confirmed with the title of king because the Emperor never consented to this.
