Palestine under Roman Procurators (6-41 and 44-70 AD)

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: In 6 A.D., Judaea was taken from Archelaus, and placed by the Emperor in charge of a Procurator. The official designation of this officer was Epitropos, for which the N.T. has, Hegemon, Governor; but Josephus, Eparchos=Praefectus. The Procurators were under the Legate of the Province of Syria. The succession of them was interrupted from 42 to 44 A.D., during which years Judaea was under Herod Agrippa I (see Map 44). On his death their administration was resumed. This map illustrates the political state of Palestine in their second period, 44-70 A.D. For their first period, 6-41 A.D., see Map 43. Under the Procurators the civil jurisdiction of the Sanhedrin was confined to Judaea proper, and did not include the right to inflict the capital penalty; but its religious authority extended to Jewish communities beyond, as we see from Acts ix. 1 f.
