Wow, No one ever said King Herod was a Prophet. He was, appearently an Arab who practiced Judesim and was appointed Govenor of what then was known as Judea, Canan, Palestine, or what is now known as Iseral. An if I remember correctly the for So Called Gospels, Namely MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, and JOHN, were written after the fact after Jesus departed from the scene. And all of it was written from memory or from other sources rather than first hand knowledge.
I haven't heard anything or much about Predicted Saviours in the Old Testiment but I guess that isn't talked about in today's world much. Prognostations about coming events are mostly a figment of someone's imagation such as the Pastor just this year predicting the end of the world. As we all know it didn't happen.
The one about 2000 years ago was a Saviour of the Jews to get out of Bondage from Egypt if anyone would bother to look it up. And as we all know that was also a complete bust. Instead Jesus decided he was much more than that. Even the Jews of the day saw him as a fraud but that is never talked about today. He was a Rebel Rouser, Trouble Maker, and Law breaker. There was a price on his head, one of his own people turned him in. Does a perfect person go into the Temple and start breaking up the place? If he was what people say he is all he would had to do was speak a few calm words and the Money Changers/Merchants would have all cleared out. And for his troubles he got a Crown of Thorns? Of course today, he is the perfect one and all others are wrong.
And, you can look it up!
