Herod Agrippa I himself ordered the beheading of [[James]] (Acts 12:2) and then put [[Peter]] into prison, although Peter was miraculously freed (Acts 12:3-10). Herod died when he was forming an alliance with other rulers who said he was a god; Herod didn't deny not, and was struck down by an angel of the Lord (Acts 12:20-23).  Secular [[Roman]] records give a slightly different account, but also record Herod being struck down unexpectedly.
