Alexander the great's conquests brought Hellenistic culture to Judah, leading to significant cultural and political changes. After his death, the Seleucid Empire took control of the region, imposing further Hellenization and often clashing with Jewish traditions, exemplified by the oppressive policies of Antiochus IV Epiphanes. This tension ultimately sparked the Maccabean Revolt, as the Jewish people sought to reclaim their religious practices and independence. The ensuing conflict fostered a stronger sense of Jewish identity and resistance against foreign rule.
