The three sons of Herod the great

Herod Antipas had a son named Archelaus. He was given the rights to rule Judea from 4 B.C. to 6 A.D. However, Augustus deposed him and set up procurators to rule from 6 A.D. to 41 A.D. The Roman procurator during the ministry of Jesus was Pontius Pilate, who was finally removed because of his cruelty to the Jews and Samaritans. 

Herod Antipas, another son of Herod, was given Galilee and Perea, which he ruled as a tetrarch from 4 B.C. to 39 A.D. His marriage to his brother's wife, Herodias, brought the rebuke of John the Baptist, whom Herod executed. It was this Herod who examined Jesus in Jerusalem before the crucifixion.

A third son of Herod, Philip, was tetrarch of the area North and East of the Sea of Galilee from 4 B.C. to 34 A.D. He made Bethsaida, the home of some of Jesus' disciples, his capital. He rebuilt Paneas and renamed it Caesarea Philippi in honor of the Emperor Tiberius Caesar and of himself.
