Bible Riddle: December 2002

My story is found in Bible lore,
I commanded a hundred, less or more.
One incident in my life in the Bible you find,
I was the very first of my kind.

While the people I ruled, most rulers would reject;
For me the people had great respect.
I was known for alms and works quite good,
Many should pray as oft as I would.

When my neighbors and kin to my house came,
They heard of Christ and His precious name.
That the word was preached to one not a Jew,
Stirred the prejudice of quite a few.

Now my name you surely know,
If you do, please tell me so.
