摘要

Herod the Great was King of Judea,confirmed in power with the aid of Rome.He was a spectacular builder who created monumental architecture in his own country and beyond.He was regarded as a friend of Rome and a foreigner by his people,but he desired to impress his subjects and leave his mark on history.He built a cosmopolitan city in Jerusalem and developed and extended the Temple Mount.He replaced the Temple completely without losing a single day of sacrifice.The Temple Mount is today a testament to his ability.
