Queen Doris of Jerusalem was the Accept

rst wife of King Herod the Great. She married him before he
became King of Judea. However, King Herod banished her and her son in order to marry a
Hasmonean princess. Later, he would recall them from exile and name his son the heir apparent.

However, Queen Doris never forgave King Herod for exiling her. She plotted to have her husband
murdered and place her son on the throne. Her schemes ultimately failed, and she faced
devastating consequences.

Queen Doris of Jerusalem’s early life is unknown. She was born sometime during the rst century
B.C.E. Many historians believe that she was the daughter of Hellenized Idumaean aristocrats who
had settled in Jerusalem.

[1] In circa 45 B.C.E., Doris married Herod while he was still the Governor of
Galilee.
[2] She gave birth to Herod’s rst son named Antipater.
When Herod became King of Judea in 37 B.C.E., he wanted to marry Mariamne, a princess of the
fallen Hasmonean Dynasty. He exiled Queen Doris and his son, Prince Antipater, from Jerusalem.
[3]
In 17 B.C.E., King Herod recalled Queen Doris and Prince Antipater from exile.
[4] King Herod hoped
that by bringing Prince Antipater back from exile, he would humble his arrogant sons whom he had
with Queen Mariamne.

[5] King Herod also made Prince Antipater his heir apparent. As the mother
of the heir apparent, Queen Doris was the most honoured woman in the Herodian court.
[6] Yet,

About Lauralee Jacks  171 Articles
I am a former elementary teacher in Tennessee. I have a bachelor’s degree in Liberal and Civic
Studies from St. Mary’s College of California, a master’s in Elementary Education from the University
of Phoenix, and a doctorate in Educational Leadership from the College of Saint Mary. Because my
family are from East Asia, I have a passion for historical Chinese and Korean television shows. I
always wanted to separate fact from ction in dramas. Writing articles from History of Royal Women
gives me a chance to dig deeper and explore these royal women as they might have been in real
life. Also, it gives me a chance to look at the history and culture of where my family originated. I love
researching East Asian royalty because they rarely get enough attention in the West often being
overshadowed by European royalty. I nd these royal women to be just as fascinating and their
