Ἡρῳδιάς (WH Ἡρῳδιάς, see Ἡρῴδης and Iota), Ἡρῳδιάδος, ἡ, Herodias, daughter of Aristobulus and granddaughter of Herod the Great. She was first married to Herod (Philip (see Φίλιππος, 1)), son of Herod the Great, a man in private life; but she afterward formed an unlawful union with Herod Antipas, whom she induced not only to slay John the Baptist but also to make the journey to Rome which ruined him; at last she followed him into exile in Gaul (see Ἡρῴδης, 2): Mat 14:3; Mat 14:6; Mar 6:17; Mar 6:19; Mar 6:22; Luk 3:19.
