Light from the Readable Books 24: Maccabean Resistance and Remembrance
from A Lamp for Today · host Dr. Edith M. Humphrey
We read the exciting chapter 2 of 1 Maccabees, comparing it to the story of Phinehas in Numbers 25:7-9, as well as in the light of Psalm 106: 26-28 and Hebrews 11. The problem of violence done by biblical heroes is considered, as well as the faithfulness and courage of Mattathias, the father of the Maccabean brothers.
