The Rise of the Maccabees: Lions of Judea Series 1 by Amit Arad
The heroic story of the Maccabees 2,150 years ago is the simple layer in the story, which actually reviews the struggles for control between the priests from the House of Zadok and the followers of the western culture of the time, and the sages, a struggle that will last about two hundred years and pave the way for Christ's desire to bring about change. Is it possible these days that history seems to be repeating itself among the Jewish people in the Land of Israel? History, People, Coming Of Age, Age Of Empires, Fiction
