What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Why was Herod eaten by worms?"
Answer
According to the provided text, Herod was eaten by worms because he accepted the people’s divine worship and thereby brought God’s wrath upon himself. The event is described as God’s judgment on his pride and his persecution of Christians.
Herod’s Pride and God’s Judgment
»Herod knew the law of God and understood that by accepting the worship of the people, he had filled up the measure of his guilt and brought upon himself the righteous wrath of God. The same angel who had rescued Peter from the power of his persecutor was Herod’s messenger of wrath and judgment. […] God brought Herod’s pride into contempt; his body […] was eaten by worms and decayed while he was still alive.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
