Bernice (also Berenice) was the eldest daughter of Herod Agrippa I, sister of Herod Agrippa II and Drusilla, and is mentioned in Acts 25:13 and 26:30 as accompanying her brother Agrippa when he visited the procurator Festus. She is described as present in the audience hall when Paul made his defense before Agrippa. Ancient sources including Josephus and the Roman historians Tacitus and Suetonius portray Bernice as a politically influential and controversial figure; she had a long-rumored incestuous relationship with her brother Agrippa, was twice widowed and twice married, and later became the mistress of the Roman general (later emperor) Titus during the Jewish War. In Acts she appears simply as a royal observer, her prominence indicated by the detail of her arrival with great pomp (Acts 25:23).
