About this listen
Years covered: 47-34bc
Hyrcanus' rule is now dependent on Rome, but what do you do when the rulers keep changing? Not to mention, Aristobulus' son is still out there, and the Parthians look set for a fight. Times are going to be tough in Judea, so its the perfect time for a scholar to immigrate.
