The Rival Kings Behind Daniel 11
After Alexander the Great died, his empire fractured into rival kingdoms ruled by his former generals.
Daniel 11 follows the long struggle between the Ptolemies of Egypt and the Seleucids of the north, two dynasties that repeatedly fought over the land of Israel.
Description
Ptolemies, Seleucids, and Daniel’s Prophecy
Daniel 11 describes a complicated series of conflicts between northern and southern powers after the death of Alexander the Great. Those powers are commonly connected with the Seleucid rulers of the north and the Ptolemaic rulers of Egypt.
The Ptolemies controlled Egypt from Alexandria, while the Seleucids ruled a vast region stretching from Syria across much of the former Persian world. Between them lay Judea, the narrow land bridge connecting Africa, Asia, and the eastern Mediterranean.
That location placed the Jewish people directly between two ambitious kingdoms. As the Ptolemies and Seleucids fought for control, Judea changed hands and became caught in the political and military struggles Daniel had described.
The conflict eventually led to Antiochus IV Epiphanes, the Seleucid ruler remembered for trying to erase Jewish worship and force Greek religious practices on the people of Judea.
