He became the first emperor of the Roman Empire after defeating Mark Antony and Cleopatra. Augustus is known for initiating the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace and stability across the empire. His reign marked significant developments in Roman infrastructure, governance, and culture. The decree for a census during his reign, as mentioned in the Bible, reflects the administrative control and organization of the Roman Empire.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of Latin origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Augustus, the name of a Rom. emperor<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Augustus (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 828: Αὐγοῦστος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Αὐγοῦστος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Ἀυγυστου</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="accented">Augustus</span> (cf.
