Years covered: 162 BC - 143 BC


In our second part on the lifetime of Jonathan Apphus, we find out what happens to the Maccabees after the Temple is in their hands. Antiochus IV might be dead, but that doesn't mean the Seleucids are just going to relinquish Judea. Independence will be a long, drawn-out process, and paid for in blood.
