Simon Maccabaeus, Prince and High Priest, 142-135 BC (litho)

Image description: Simon Maccabaeus, Prince and High Priest, 142-135 BC. The persecutions of Antiochus Epiphanes caused the rebellion of the Jews. Under Mattathias, Judas, Jonathan and Simon Maccabaeus, the Syrian overlordship was defied and extinguished. In 141 BC Simon Maccabaeus was confirmed as permanent Prince and High Priest, and the office made hereditary in his family. Two years later the Roman Senate recognized the independence of Judaea.
