Nice try. Archelaus is not Antipas, which the passages refer to.
Quote:Herod the Great is always Identified as "H The Great" or King H 'the Great.' in Mat
Not in the Matt passages I quoted.
Quote:In Luke 3 Luke attempts to separate the various herods, but ultimately refers to the ruler of Galalee [sic] as King Herod or simply Herod.
The ruler of Galilee was Antipas.
Quote:Remember Luke is also the writer of acts and as such all of what I said applies to the book of acts as well. (Which starts at the death of Jesus 33AD well past the reign of HTG)
Again, Antipas is not Achelaus and I find it highly dubious that the same author of Luke's Gospel also wrote Acts. Luke has Jesus rising into Heaven on the day of his resurrection. Acts has Jesus terry for 40 days.
Can you cite ... any scholarly opinion that Luke was referring to Archelaus?
Why do you need 'scholarly opinion?' As luke points out in chapter 3 he divides the herodian line into regions. So if He says King Herod of Galalee he means antipiuis, if he is speaking of the king herod of Judea he means Archelaus. Your going to have to read the context of Luke's writing to determine who he is speaking of. Rather than look to a 'scholar' to tell you what to think.
