What links tertrachs, denarii and Caesar specifically to the Rome of the Bible?
(and not the Rome we were given in history)
I don't see that link.
Where does it say that Herod is a Roman? Or Pilate? Or Augustus?
If I don't step out of the Bible and try to figure out what reign people are under at the start of the New testament, I don't come to the conclusion that Rome (a location that is mentioned a handful of times) is a huge empire under which rule everyone is living.

Certainly because at that time this was so obvious it was not worth mentioning it.
Many translation turn "praitorios" (praetorium) into "hall of the Roman governor" for no reason.
It means "the first building" or "building of the first", so "Capital building" is a better translation.


Must be hard trying to read anything in the Bible without understanding tradition at all 🙈
