Between the Testaments · historical collection

The books of
the Maccabees

Read First and Second Maccabees in their own historical collection, where the events surrounding Antiochus IV, the temple’s profanation, the Maccabean revolt, and the Hasmonean age can be examined without confusing this library with the site’s primary KJV Bible.
