Acts 12:21

On the appointed day, Herod sat on the throne, dressed in royal robes, and gave a speech to them.
[The Jewish historian Josephus describes the events in more detail. He writes how Agrippa organized theatrical performances to honor the emperor, Claudius. Many high-ranking officers and other men were invited. On the second day of these games, Herod Agrippa appeared wearing a shiny silver cloak. When the rays of the morning sun reflected off his clothes, he shone and sparkled like a god.]
