Ancient Israel
After the death
of King Solomon, Israel was split into 2 nations:Judah & Israel. Israel was conquered by
the
Assyrians, while Judah was conquered by the Babylonians. During the 5th century BC the
Persian empire
established a reunited Israel, only to be conquered by Alexander the Great by
the 4th century BC. This hellenic
rule would be cut off through the revolt of the Macabees
in 141 BC, thus reestablishing a Jewish state.
