Herod commits a great offence against God, and the Lord had determined to make an example of him. His crime? Accepting honour due to God alone. An angel afflicts him with a disease from which he soon dies. Rulers, like all men, have a duty to give God the glory in all things. Yet most rulers, like most men, neglect this, to their eternal ruin. God will not share his glory with another or be denied it. However, the Son of God does share it, but this is by virtue of his place within the godhead. The contrast in this story is stark: the voice of Herod is ended, as is whatever pitiful glory he had. Yet the word of God increased! This word of God was not the Bible as such but the preaching of the cross. We see that it is in this figure of the Christ that the glory of God finds its most glorious fulfilment.
