No. When Herod the Great died, his kingdom was divided among three of his sons. Judea and Samaria went to Archelaus, Galilee and the region east of the Jordan River went to Herod Antipas, and the northeastern portions of the kingdom went to Herod Philip I. Herod Antipas (also called Herod the Tetrarch), the ruler in Galilee, participated in the trial of Jesus.

The wife of Herod Antipas was Herodias, who was originally married to Herod Antipas' half-brother, Herod Philip. Herodias left Herod Philip to marry Herod Antipas, which was considered scandalous and led to criticism from John the Baptist. This ultimately led to John the Baptist's imprisonment and execution.

Roman law was the same for everyone in the empire, the laws under Antipas were no different. Herod Antipas ruled his part of Judea as a client king of Rome. This meant that although he had a great deal of power, his authority was not absolute in certain areas. Roman law prevailed over local law.

There are two references regarding the name Antipas. I do not know if they are two different people or one and the same. King Herod Antipas (short for Antipatros) was a first century AD ruler of Galilee and Perea. Saint Antipas is referred to in the Book of Revelation (Revelation 2:13) as the "faithful martyr" of Pergamon.

We have two slightly different stories about John the Baptist, one in the New Testament gospels and another in the writings of the first century Jewish historian Josephus.
Both sources agree that John was arrested for publicly criticising the marriage of Herod Antipas to his own brother's former wife, but the gospels place the arrest and execution of John at the beginning of Jesus' mission, in 29 CE. Josephus tells us that the wedding actually took place in 34 CE and resulted in Aretas, king of Nabatea, attacking Herod Antipas in 36 CE.

According to the Gospels, Herod Antipas had John the Baptist beheaded at the capricious request of his daughter, during the time of Jesus in Galilee.
However, the Jewish historian Josephus said that Herod Antipas had the Baptist killed in quite different circumstances, because he disapproved of Antipas' marriage to his own brother's wife, who divorced her husband in order to marry Herod Antipas. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews: "Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."
So, according to Josephus, Herod Antipas made no oath or promise to his daughter, who was not actually involved in the execution of John the Baptist.

After the death of King Herod the Great, his kingdom was divided amongst his sons. Herod Antipas became the tetrarch of Galilee. Antipas imprisoned John the Baptist because he disapproved of Antipas' marriage to his own brother's wife, who divorced her husband in order to marry Herod Antipas. According to the Gospels, Antipas reluctantly had John the Baptist beheaded at the capricious request of his daughter, during the time of Jesus in Galilee.
However, we have one other source of information on John the Baptist. The Jewish historian Josephus said that Herod Antipas had the Baptist killed in quite different circumstances, because he feared a rebellion. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews:
"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death.

In the Gospel of Luke, Pontius Pilate was asked by the religious authorities to try and sentence Jesus but, being unwilling to sentence an innocent man and learning that Herod Antipas was in Jerusalem, sent Jesus to Herod to be sentenced. Herod, in turn, was unwilling to sentence Jesus and so left Pilate with this terrible responsibility.

Herod Antipas was a younger son of Herod the Great. ("Herod" is a title in his case.) He was named Tetrarch of Galilee following his father's death. He divorced his wife in order to marry his brother's sister (who was also his niece).
He is the Herod who was condemned by John the Baptist, whom he had beheaded at the request of his wife's daughter (also his niece).
He also was the Herod who questioned Jesus Christ (along with Pilate) at the time of Jesus' crucifixion.

Herod.
Kings mentioned in the style of King "X" are so named because "X" is their first name. Royalty, both ancient and modern only use first names and if they need any qualifying specifics, they use numbers, such as Elizabeth II, or Ptolemy XII. In the case of Herod, they used a second name such as Herod Agrippa or Herod Antipas as specifics.

The historical account, provided by Josephus, is somewhat different. The gospel account is correct in that John the Baptist had publicly criticised Antipas' marriage to Herodias, which took place in 34 CE. But Herod himself had wanted John killed, lest he start an uprising among the people of Galilee. Herod Antipas' respect for John the Baptist was out of fear for the hold he had over the people and the damage John could do by continuing to criticise him. Herod's respect was such that wanted John dead as quickly as possible, in faraway Macherus where the execution could take place without causing a riot. In the historical account, there was no party in Galilee and no head on a platter. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews says:
"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."

There was no 'Jewish' military. Each of the princelings in Palestine (the Tetrarchs - eg Philip, Herod Antipas) maintained small armies.

A:
John the baptist was executed on the orders of Herod Antipas, who was only a tetrarch in the Roman Empire, not a king. The gospels say that John had been arrested for publicly criticising the marriage of Herod Antipas to his own brother's former wife, but that Herod did not wish to harm John. The daughter of Herodias danced for Herod Antipas at a party in Galilee, after which he offered her anything she wished. Prompted by her mother, Herodias, she asked for the head of John the Baptist on a platter. This could hardly be more different to the account told by the first-century historian, Josephus.
Josephus tells us that Herod Antipas had John arrested and taken to faraway Macherus and executed, for fear that he would raise a rebellion among the Jews. Although John's criticism of the marriage was a factor, Herod was chiefly concerned about the possibility of John sparking an uprising. For this reason, he had John executed as quickly as possible. We are not told whether John the Baptist was actually beheaded, or executed in some other way. The relevant text from Book 18 of Antiquities of the Jews:
"Now many people came in crowds to him, for they were greatly moved by his words. Herod, who feared that the great influence John had over the masses might put them into his power and enable him to raise a rebellion (for they seemed ready to do anything he should advise), thought it best to put him to death. In this way, he might prevent any mischief John might cause, and not bring himself into difficulties by sparing a man who might make him repent of it when it would be too late. Accordingly John was sent as a prisoner, out of Herod's suspicious temper, to Macherus, the castle I already mentioned, and was put to death."
