And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
En ese mismo momento, un ángel del Señor lo hirió porque no dio la gloria a Dios. Su cuerpo fue comido por gusanos y murió.
Dios castigó inmediatamente a quien se robó su gloria en lugar de reconocerlo como el único digno de adoración.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Acts, King Herod Agrippa I was a ruler in the Roman Empire who had been persecuting the early Christian church, including the arrest and execution of James and the imprisonment of Peter. During a public address in Caesarea, the crowds flattered him by declaring him a god, reflecting the cultural tendency in the ancient world to deify rulers for political gain. As a result, God intervened through an angel to judge Herod for not giving proper glory to the Almighty, demonstrating the biblical principle that human pride invites divine correction.
