According to the Bible, King Herod the Great wanted to kill Jesus when He was a baby. Herod was worried that Jesus would take his throne, so he ordered the Massacre of the Innocents, in which all male infants two years old and younger in the vicinity of Bethlehem were killed.

King Herod wanted to kill Jesus when he was a baby because he was threatened by the prophecy that a new king, the Messiah, would be born in Bethlehem. Herod ordered the massacre of all male infants in Bethlehem to eliminate any competition to his throne, hoping to find and kill Jesus among them. However, an angel warned Joseph and Mary to flee to Egypt with the baby Jesus, and they escaped Herod's wrath.

The Bible says that King Herod was the one who wanted to have Jesus killed as a newborn.

The infant Jewish king's whereabouts were enquired about by Herod when the wise men from the east arrived in Jerusalem.

Herod gave the wise men instructions to locate the kid so that he may also adore him because he felt threatened by the announcement of a potential heir to his throne.

From what I know Harold was the one who wanted  to kill Jesus when Jesus was just a baby the reason is because the people were saying that a king is born and he was not ready to give out the throne to anyone
