    Daniel 8:1-9 The Ram & The Goat (Alexander & Antiochus)
    Jan 18 2026
    Learn how Daniel predicted the rise of both Alexander the Great and Antiochus Epiphanes. Upon editing the attached .mp3, I noticed four errors I made in this presentation: 1) Elam was an ancient country two to three thousand years ago. I meant to say 2000-3000 BC, not two or three thousand years before our current time. Elam's actual dates are c. 2700-539. It was absorbed into Persia by Cyrus the Great the same year he conquered Babylon. 2) I said Cassius Dio was a source for our period No, he was late second century AD, not BC. 3) Steve asked me if the "Festival of Lights" was the same as Hanukkah. I thought he said the "Festival of Lots," which is the Jewish festival of Purim. So, "Festival of LIghts" is Hannakkah, "Festival of Lots" is Purim. 4) I said Polybius was a Roman historian. Actually he was Greek, who spent some time in Rome. His dates are c.200-118 BC, which means he is a great authority for the little horn Antiochus IV Epiphanes (r. 175-164).
