The idea that Josephus shows that Herod the Great was a descendent of Matthias of hte Hasmonean dynasty has been reported on the article [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Antipater_the_Idumaean&diff=146203839&oldid=140957876 "Antipater the Idumaean"] on Wikipedia.  That article was then cited [http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ancient_genealogy/message/443 here] on the Ancient Genealogy group.  This linkage is spurious as I shall demonstrate.
