	Antiochus IV Epiphanes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Antiochus said he would discuss it with his council, whereupon the envoy drew a line round him in the sand, and said, "Think about it here." The implication was that, were he to step out of the circle without having first undertaken to withdraw, he would be at war with Rome.
		The reign of Antiochus was a last period of strength for the empire, but in some way it was fatal; since he was an usurper, and left his infant son Antiochus V Eupator as his successor, devastating dynastic wars followed his death.

	Antiochan Persecution
		According to Bickermann, the cause of the Antiochan persecution was not Antiochus IV, but the extreme Hellenists Menelaus and the Tobiads, who hoped to reform their ancestral religion in order to remove the barriers between the Jews and the surrounding Hellenistic world abolish Jewish particularism (see Hengel, Judaism and Hellenism, 1.267-303).
		Goldstein's thesis is that the years that Antiochus IV had spent in Rome as a hostage had introduced him to the Roman method of handling the troublesome cult of Dionysius in Rome.
		Antiochus is supposed to have identified the Judaism as the cause of the political problems in Jerusalem, in the same way that the cult of Dionysius was the cuase of civil unrest in Rome, and took steps to suppress the distinctly Jewish practices in Roman fashion.
