9) The king of the south.–According to the Hebrew text, these words are in the genitive case (so Theod. Jer.), though the English Version is supported by the LXX. In this case the meaning is, “The king of the north shall come into the kingdom of the southern king,” and then shall return to his own land–i.e., the north–apparently without gaining any advantage. As excellent a translation as the King James Version was (and is), its editors never claimed to be infallibile. Their marginal notes indicate instances where they lacked absolute certainty over some readings. They acknowledged this in their preface: …it hath…

Last week, in this glimpse at the over five hundred year period between Cyrus The Great and The Coming Messiah, – prophesied in Daniel 11 – Berenice, The Daughter of Ptolemy II and his first wife, Arsinoe I, was murdered by the supporters of Laodice, The Divorced Wife of Antiochus II. Not only was Berenice assassinated, but her son – the one who was to bring peace between The Ptolemaic and The Seleucid Empires, the five-year old Antiochus III, – was killed. Berenice’s full brother, Ptolemy III determined to avenge his sister and nephew. The avenging of his sister and…

The Tragic History of Berenice, The Daughter of Ptolemy, The Wife of Antiochus I. N.B. ALTHOUGH PTOLEMY II DIED IN 246 B.C.E. , HE WAS NOT KILLED BY LAODICE. PTOLEMY’S DEATH, HOWEVER, MAY HAVE BEEN THE CAUSE OF ANTIOCHUS II RENEWING RELATIONS WITH HIS DIVORCED WIFE, LAODICE. Co-Co, The Coconut-Throwing Chimpanzee Schoolmaster, used to lament the folly of Antiochus II who seemed unaware of how his first wife, Laodice, would react to being divorced. (Of course, the English playwright, William Congreve lived many years after Antiochus, but the scorned Laodice is the archetypal ‘woman scorned’.) Berenice’s tragic story has inspired…

Even in his own lifetime (358 B.C.E. – 281 B.C.E.) legends and stories of Seleucus’ s heroic status abounded. His mother told him (on his embarking on Alexander, The Great, ‘s military campaign to conquer The Persian Empire,) that he, Seleucus, was a son of the god, Apollo. Seleucus had a birthmark, an anchor. When he was about to reclaim his satrap of Babylonia, he stumbled upon an old anchor, Some of his soldiers thought that this was an ill omen; Ptolemy, who gave his friend, Seleucus, soldiers and cavalry to enable him to retake Babylon, argued that it was…

Seleucus’s Dominion Shall Be A Great Dominion (Daniel 11:5b) It was this Scripture – Daniel 11:5b – which intrigued the coconut – throwing chimpanzee schoolmaster, Co-Co, in his youth. He became curious as to: Why was it that The Seleucid Empire became so great – almost as great as Alexander’s vast domain? What kind of a man was Seleucus? How did Seleucus come to have such a dominion when, at the death of Alexander, he was not even given a satrap [province] to govern? Perdiccas ( the Regent named by Alexander’s generals to govern until Alexander’s son borne by Roxana,…

The Kingdoms of The Four Winds of Heaven Daniel 11:4 ‘And when He[Alexander, The Great] shall stand up, His Kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward The Four Winds of Heaven; and not for His posterity, nor according to His Dominion which He ruled: for His Kingdom shall be plucked up, even for other beside Those.’ Alexander’s generals and admirals conquered the two hundred year-old Persian Empire (536 B.C.E. – 323 B.C.E.) under their mighty monarch. Some of them had been educated with Alexander in his youth. Others had been with him in his conquests or had been…

Alexander III of Macedon, is according to Co-Co, The Schoolmaster of the Chimpanzees, the greatest military commander of all time – except for The Coming Messiah. Not only did Alexander (356 B.C.E. – 323 B.C.E.) conquer The Persian Empire in a series of campaigns that lasted for ten years, but he led his Macedonians and many other auxiliaries almost to the end of the known world. He never lost a battle and he founded more than twenty cities – a characteristic of great kings – ; but what impressed Co-Co the most was that he held his commanders together –…
