With the death of Alexander, the Greek empire divided into two rivaling
ones: the Seleucid Empire of the north and the Ptolemaic empire of the
south. Precariously sandwiched between them was the Land of Israel. The
deceptively peaceful period which saw the creation of the Septuagint
and mass assimilation turned out to be the calm before the storm of
Greek oppression, the Maccabee rebellion, and the Chanukah victory and
miracle.
