UNFOLDING THE WORD With Dr. Gary Kuhne
Vs. 21-35 turn attention to a coming time of great suffering for the Jewish people under the rule of Antiochus Epiphanes. Antiochus ruled the Seleucid empire from 175 BC until 164 BC. His leadership was a ruthless an dviolent leadership and the Jews suffered greatly at his hands. After his death, and after a fried time of independence, the Jewish people came under the rule of a set of “puppet kings” called the Hasmonean Dynasty, that ruled over Jerusalem and the surrounding regions between 140 BC and 37BC on behalf of the Seleucid and Roman empires. IN 37 BC Rome then established another set of kings to reign under their control called the Herodian Dynasty. The first of these rulers was Herod the Great, who ruled over Jerusalem region at the time of Christ’s birth, thus finishing the “69 weeks” and setting the stage for the next verses that will focus on the “70th Week: and the coming rule of the Antichrist.
