• siblings with Herod (son of Antipater and Cypros) (Joseph is explicitly identified as Herod's brother.) “Joseph, Herod's brother, was disposed to run away to the Arabians, with two hundred of his own friends”
• enemies with Antigonus (son of Aristobulus) “Joseph, Herod's brother, was disposed to run away to the Arabians, with two hundred of his own friends, because he had heard that Malichus repented of his offenses with regard to Herod; and he had been so quick as to have been gone out of the fortress already, unless, on that very night when he was going away, there had fallen a great deal of rain, insomuch that his reservoirs were full of water, and so he was under no necessity of running away. After which, therefore, they made an irruption upon Antigonus's party, and slew a great many of them”
