A proud look: Herod was ruler, and he didn’t want anyone else ‘stealing’ it from him.
A lying tongue: Telling the Wise Men that he would come and worship the Child when he really wanted to kill him.
Hands that shed innocent blood: Killing all the children under the age of two in his kingdom.
This was not a God-pleasing kingdom! Herod’s plan to kill Jesus did not succeed, either. I guess Herod didn’t consider that Jesus would be given an Everlasting Kingdom!
