This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two books of Maccabees in the Catholic Bible, and none in the Protestant Bible. There were (and still are) speculations and arguments, about why these books existed in one version of the Bible and not in the other, but none of them went to the core of the matter until Henry Cotton. As shown in this book, there are not two but five books of Maccabees. Five books so rich in the history, politics and religion of the Jewish people that leaving them out of any version of the Bible equals the drastic erasing of the history of an entire nation of people. Henry Cotton corrects this error by researching and collecting the writings of ancient Jewish authors. The work of these authors tells of the persecution of the Jews under the Seleucid dynasty, details the true beginning of Hannukah and provides authentic information for the period known as the "400 Years of Silence." Proving to be much more than religious text, Cottons unveils the fascinating history of the Jewish people, one neglected in the Protestant Bible and barely explored in the catholic one. Presenting it in a manner that lets you explore history in the most engaging way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These five books are known as the apocrypha books of the Bible, they were removed from the Bible by the Protestant Church in the 1800's. These books are as true today, as they were in the 1800's, before being omitted from the Bible.These are great books to teach in your Sunday school classes. They're also great collector items to have. Here's just one verse of what's inside these powerful books, quote: Wisdom of Solomon chapter 17:3 For while they supposed to lie hid in their secret sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfulness, being horribly astonished, and troubled with strange apparitions. unquote: Do you now see why these books were omitted from the Bible in the 1800's? What is an apparition? It's a ghost or ghost like image of a person.

Book excerpt: Mr Bartlett's volume, like the others in the series, contains the text in the New English Bible. After a general introduction to the book as a whole, the text is given in short passages, with a commentary directly following each. These Jewish historical works, the two books of the Maccabees, were written to describe the struggles of the Jews in the second century BC against encroachment of the Greek way of life and against the political domination of the Syrians. The particular purpose of this commentary is to bring out the political and religious motives of the various parties to the struggle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the conquests of Alexander the Great, the ancient world of the Bible—the ancient Near East—came under Greek rule, and in the land of Israel, time-old traditions met Greek culture. But with the accession of King Antiochos IV, the soft power of culture was replaced with armed conflict, and soon the Jews rebelled against their imperial masters, as recorded in the Biblical books of the Maccabees. Whereas most scholars have dismissed the biblical accounts of religious persecution and cultural clash, Sylvie Honigman combines subtle literary analysis with deep historical insight to show how their testimony can be reconciled with modern historical analysis by conversing with the biblical authors, so to speak, in their own language to understand the ways they described their experiences. Honigman contends that these stories are not mere fantasies but genuine attempts to cope with the massacre that followed the rebellion by giving it new meaning. This reading also discloses fresh political and economic factors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the early second century BC, Israel had long been under the rule of the Hellenistic Seleucid Empire. But the policy of deliberate Hellenization and suppression of Jewish religious practices by Antiochus IV, sparked a revolt in 167 BC which was led initially by Judah Maccabee and later by his brothers and their descendants. Relying on guerrilla tactics the growing insurrection repeatedly took on the sophisticated might of the Seleucid army with mixed, but generally successful, results, establishing the Maccabees as the Hasmonean Dynasty of rulers over a once-more independent Israel. (It is Judah Maccabee's ritual cleansing of the Temple after his victories over the Seleucids that is celebrated by Jews every year at Hannukah). Internal disputes weakened the revived state, however, and it eventually fell victim to the Romans who replaced the Seleucids as the local superpower. John D Grainger explains the causes of the revolt and traces the course of the various campaigns of the Maccabees, first against the Seleucids and then the Romans who captured Jerusalem in 63BC and partitioned the kingdom. The last chapters consider the continued Jewish resistance to Roman rule and factional fighting, until the crowning of Herod, marked the end of the Hasmonean dynasty.
