The Bible mentions these rulers of and near Judea:
Herod the Great[SGI 5527], Herod Archaelaus[SGI 5539], Herod Antipas, Philip, Herod Agrippa I[SGI 5567], Agrippa II[SGI 5580V], and Aretas IV[SGI 5699].

We can read their names on the coins they issued. So the Bible talks about real people and real history.
