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). 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. Although never stated in the sources, Tcherikover proposes that the revolt of the Hasidim was rekindled after the departure of Antiochus IV, which led him to send Apollonius with troops in order to suppress it. www.abu.nb.ca /courses/NTIntro/InTest/AntiocRecon.htm

Antiochus IV, the Little Horn of Daniel Chapter 8 Antiochus was convinced the geocentric cosmology was true, as shown, for example, by some of his lavish building projects, that promoted the worship of Zeus Olympos, as well as the other Homeric gods.
