ARISTOBULUS . 1 . The name of a son and of a grandson of Herod the Great. The grandson lived as a private Individual at Rome, and was a friend of the Emperor Claudius; those greeted by St. Paul in Romans 16:10 were probably some of his slaves. If he was then dead, they might have become members of the Imperial household, but would still retain Aristobulus’ name. 2 . The teacher of Ptolemy ( 2M Malachi 1:10 ).

A. J. Maclean.
