[342]
But in the tenth year of Archelaus's government, both his brethren,
and the principal men of Judea and Samaria, not being able to bear his
barbarous and tyrannical usage of them, accused him before Caesar, and
that especially because they knew he had broken the commands of Caesar,
which obliged him to behave himself with moderation among them. Whereupon
Caesar, when he heard it, was very angry, and called for Archelaus's steward,
who took care of his affairs at Rome, and whose name was Archelaus also;
and thinking it beneath him to write to Archelaus, he bid him sail away
as soon as possible, and bring him to us: so the man made haste in his
voyage, and when he came into Judea, he found Archelaus feasting with his
friends; so he told him what Caesar had sent him about, and hastened him
away. And when he was come [to Rome], Caesar, upon hearing what certain
accusers of his had to say, and what reply he could make, both banished
him, and appointed Vienna, a city of Gaul, to be the place of his habitation,
and took his money away from him.
