  palace: Or “praetorium.” In the Gospels and Acts, the Greek word prai·toʹri·on (from Latin) is used with regard to a palace or a residence. The tent of an army commander had been known as the praetorium, so in time the term was applied to the residence of a provincial governor. Here the term refers to a palace located in Caesarea and built by Herod the Great. At this time, about 56 C.E., it served as the residence of the Roman governor.—See study note on Mt 27:27.
