In the nearby kingdom of Macedonia, King Philip II took note. Philip dreamed of taking control of Greece and then moving against Persia to seize its vast wealth. Philip also hoped to avenge the Persian invasion of Greece in 480 B.C.

  • Alexander Essay Hints
    Alexander Essay Hints Writing an introduction An introduction needs to overview the key ideas of the essay. You should try to answer all the questions in a general fashion within one paragraph The Question: At the end of 333 BC, Alexander defeated the Persian king, Darius III, on the field of battle at Issus, in the south of modern Turkey. Discuss: • the events leading up to the battle of Issus • the tactics used by each of the commanders in this battle • the reasons for Alexander’s victory. How costly was defeat in this battle for Darius? Various introductions: In this essay I will discuss the reasons why Darius III lost the battle of Issue. It was a costly defeat for Darius. On a sunny day in 333 BC on a coastal plain somewhere in Persia a great battle was fought. Alexander the Great destroyed and humiliated the rabble of a Persian army despite having massive odds against him. The battle of Issus in 333 BC was a significant point in Alexander’s campaigns in the Persian Empire. It was here that for the first time, he defeated the Great King, Darius III in open battle. A key reason for the defeat lay in the events that led to the battle being fought on a narrow coastal plain. This meant that Darius was unable to use his superior numbers to gain any sort of tactical advantage. But it was also Alexander’s ability to seize on these advantages that led to such a decisive defeat. It could be argued that Darius and his people never fully recovered from the psychological blow inflicted by at the battle of Issus.

  • Who Succeeded Xerxes on the Throne of Persia?
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 12/1 (Spring 2001): 83Ð88. Article copyright © 2001 by William H. Shea. Who Succeeded Xerxes on the Throne of Persia? William H. Shea A standard interpretation of ancient Persian history in the mid-5th century B.C. is that Artaxerxes I followed his father on the throne after Xerxes was murdered. This interpretation has been developed from the classical writers, the king lists, and the datelines on contract tables from Babylonia which follow this order. Since there is a late Hellenistic astronomical text which dates the murder of Xerxes in the fifth Persian-Babylonian month, or August, the transition be- tween these two kings has been dated in the summer of 465 B.C., about forty days before the Jewish New Year of 1 Tishri. If the Jews, like Ezra, used a fall- to-fall calendar and accession year reckoning, those forty days would have served as ArtaxerxesÕ accession period or Year 0, and his first full year of reign would have begun on 1 Tishri in 465 B.C. That would also make his seventh year extend from the fall of 459 to the fall of 458, not from the fall of 458 to the fall of 457, as Adventist interpreters have held. But this problem is complicated by two factors. First, there was the politi- cal turmoil after the murder of Xerxes. Second, there is the lack of any sources dated to Artaxerxes in the last half of 465 B.C. The Artaxerxes sources can be reviewed as follows: 1. Persian sources.

  • In Order to Understand the Final Kings and Kingdoms in the Book of Revelation One Must Follow the Progression Presented in Daniel
    In order to understand the final kings and kingdoms in the book of Revelation one must follow the progression presented in Daniel. Daniel begins with the Kingdom of Babylon, learns of the coming of the Medo‐Persian Empire and is given visions of Greece and Rome. The final kingdoms to come are sealed up for another day; to be revealed to John in the Revelation of Jesus Christ. The timing of events are revealed in Daniel 9. “Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate” There is a purpose to the time determined upon Israel; to make reconciliation for iniquity; to bring in everlasting righteousness; and to seal up and anoint.

  • An Updated Chronology of the Reigns of Phoenician Kings During the Persian Period (539-333 BCE)
    An Updated Chronology of the Reigns of Phoenician Kings during the Persian Period (539-333 BCE) J. ELAYI* Résumé: L’objectif de cet article est de proposer une chronologie des règnes des rois phéniciens à l’époque perse (539-333 av. notre ère), à partir de toutes les données disponibles dans l’état actuel de la documentation. Cette chronologie à jour et prudente pourra être utilisée comme base fiable par tous les spécialistes du Proche-Orient à l’époque perse. The chronology of the reigns of Phoenician kings during the Persian Period (539-333 BCE)1 is very difficult to establish for several reasons. First, the Persian period remained virtually unexplored until the last 20 years2; moreover, Phoenician studies were for a long time dependent on biblical chronology3. On the other hand, the deficiency of the sources has to be underlined. Monumental inscriptions mentioning kings and dated by the years of reign are rare in Phoenician cities, partly because many of them have disappeared in lime kilns, and perishable official *. CNRS, Paris. 1. 539 is the traditional date for the Persian conquest of Phoenician cities: see J. Elayi, Sidon cité autonome de l’Empire perse, Paris 1990², pp. 137-8. 333 is the date of the conquest of Phoenician cities by Alexander (332 for Tyre). 2. See J. Elayi and J.
