The Bible and the Hasmonean State שהגנ

Description: The Bible & the Hasmonean State: How Jewish Success Against the Greeks in the 170th Year Established the Mysterious Fourth Principality of Bible Prophecy, challenges the common belief of a 400-year prophetic silence between the Old and New Testaments.

The cover features the Beth Horon Pass, a strategic location that witnessed two crucial moments in Jewish history: Judas Maccabee’s victory over the Seleucid Greeks and the first century Zealots’ AD 66 triumph against the Romans 229 years later.  Hebrew letters שהגנ are displayed, representing “A Great Miracle Happened There,” establishing Hanukka, which was the rededication of the Second Temple and commemoration of the Maccabean victory.

The ebook begins with a preamble that sets the stage for exploring this misunderstood period of Jewish history.  It then delves into an examination of biblical prophecies, particularly from the Book of Daniel, and their fulfillment in historical events long after the time of Malachi.

Key topics covered include:

1. Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and its interpretation by Daniel
2. Prophecies about Alexander the Great and his successors
3. The rise of Antiochus IV Epiphanes and his actions against the Jews
4. The Maccabean Revolt and the cleansing of the Second Temple
5. The eventual decline of the Jewish state under Roman influence

The author argues that these events demonstrate the continuous fulfillment of biblical prophecies during this period, challenging the notion of prophetic silence.

The ebook includes endnotes, a Further Reading section with scholarly works on the subject, and a list of other tracts by True Christian Press.  It aims to provide a fresh perspective on this era of Jewish salvation history and its significance in understanding long range biblical prophecy.
