Summary

Welcome to the Maccabean Revolt period! Jeff Cavins joins Fr. Mike to introduce the tenth biblical period in our journey, which begins with the Greek oppression of the Jews under Antiochus Epiphanes, and ends with Herodian rule of the Holy Land. Jeff and Fr. Mike walk us through the key events of this period, highlighting the zealous response of the Maccabean family, the celebration of Hanukkah, and the heroic martyrdom of Jews who would not betray their religious identity in the midst of persecution.

0:00.0	Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz, and you're listening to the Bible in a year podcast,
0:07.5	where we encounter God's voice and live life through the lens of Scripture.

0:46.4	And so, Jeff, welcome, and man, what do we do now?
0:52.2	We're actually entering, I think, one of the most underrated periods in one of the most

1:04.2	And for our wonderful Protestant friends who have been joining us on this excellent adventure,
1:10.2	they're running into a book now that might seem a little bit foreign, and I think it
1:15.1	would be good to take just a couple of minutes to explain that book, and where did it come
