  1. childermas

    The Massacre of the Innocents is an incident in the nativity narrative of the Gospel of Matthew (2:16–18) in which Herod the Great, king of Judea, orders the execution of all male children who are two years old and under in the vicinity of Bethlehem. Christians venerate them as the first Christian martyrs. A majority of Herod biographers, and "probably a majority of [...] biblical scholars," hold the event to be myth or legend.
