Sample Book Insights:
#1 The intertestamental period, which spans roughly four hundred years, is the foundation of Christianity. It was during this period that the Jews were dispersed among the nations, and they no longer believed that prophetic inspiration had ceased with Malachi.
#2 After the Israelites had conquered the Promised Land and all the tribes were settled, it was time to build the Temple to God and centralize their worship. King Solomon built the Temple, but God prohibited him because he had shed so much blood and waged so much war. His son, King Solomon, completed the project.
#3 The first part of the intertestamental period, from 400 BC to 331 BC, was uneventful for both the Persians and Jews. Persia was tolerant of the Jewish people, and they were allowed to practice their laws and rituals under the authority of the Jewish high priest.
#4 The Seleucids gained control of Israel in 198 BC, and were initially tolerant of Jewish customs and practices. But tensions arose between the Seleucids and the Jews, who were loyal to their own culture.
