I'm going to write about the Maccabein Revolt and what led up to it. I want to cover things like how The Jews were feeling, why they felt this way, and how it led up to the revolt. I will start off talking about Antiochus IV. How he treated the Jews bad and tried to Hellinse them, how he made Jason a high preist even though he wasn't a Jew. Antiochus also made the temple a worship place for Zues and offerd sacrafices for him in the temple.

A priest named Mattathias became upset with what was going on and killed a commisner for the king then him and other families fled to the mountians and from there started their revolt. When Mattathias died his sons conntinued the revolt. This is a very brief summery of what my paper is about. This is just kind of where I'm going with this.
