This volume asks why Jewish groups - Sadducees, Pharisees, Essenes and the Dead Sea Scroll sect - flourished during the Maccabean era. It argues that such a result is uncommon, requiring special explanation. In the introduction, sectarianism is defined and its varieties in Second Temple Judaism assessed. Among the causes of the known results suggested are the encounter with an outside culture that seemed to be weakening the external national perimeter, the impact of expanded literacy, the move to the city from the farm, as well as eschatological hope aroused by Maccabean victory. In proposing these conclusions, full advantage is taken of recently published Qumran sources, such as 4QMMT. The objective is to discover the connection between context and consequence, which will explain why sectarianism was so prominent at that time.

The Maccabees: The Hasmonaean Dynasty between Malachi and Matthew delves into the fascinating history of the Hasmonaean dynasty, which played a critical role in shaping the Jewish religion and culture during the Second Temple period. The book tells the story of the Maccabees, a Jewish family who rose to power in the 2nd century BCE and led a rebellion against the Seleucid Empire to reclaim their religious freedom. The book takes a detailed look at the key players of the Hasmonaean dynasty, including Mattathias ben Johanan, who helped spark the Maccabean Revolt, and John Hyrcanus, the first Hasmonaean ruler to be crowned as King. It also examines the reigns of Aristobulus II and Alexander Jannaeus, who were notable for their religious reforms and political decisions. The book also delves into the internal conflicts and struggles for power within the Hasmonaean dynasty, as well as the conflicts with other Jewish sects, such as the Sadducees and the Pharisees. It also explores the impact of Roman rule on the Hasmonaean dynasty and the ultimate decline and fall of the dynasty. With a wealth of historical information and expert analysis, The Maccabees: The Hasmonaean Dynasty between Malachi and Matthew offers a comprehensive and engaging look into this important period in Jewish history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Jewish people, the Second Temple period, and the origins of modern-day Jewish religious practices and beliefs.
