John Hyrcanus

Posted by ManilasMan on Thursday, January 10, 2013 , under | comments (0)





English: Hyrcanus was a Hasmonean (Maccabeean) leader of the 2nd century BC.






Josephus explains in The Jewish War that John was also known as "Hyrcanus", but does not explain the reason behind this name. The only other primary source, the Books of the Maccabees, never used this name with respect to John, with the single reference to Hyrcanus in 2 Maccabees 3:11[1] referring to a man to whom some of the money in the Temple belonged during the c.178 BCE visit of Heliodorus.
The reason for the name is disputed amongst biblical scholars, with a variety of reasons proposed:
Familial origin in the region of Hyrcania on the Caspian Sea[2]
A Greek regnal name, which would have represented closer ties with the Hellenistic culture against which the Maccabees had revolted under Seleucid rule. However, the region of Hyrcania had been conquered by Mithridates I of Parthia in 141–139 BCE
Given the name by the Seleucids after he fought in the region alongside Antiochus VII Sidetes against Phraates II of Parthia in 130–129 BCE, a campaign which resulted in the release of Antiochus' brother Demetrius II Nicator from captivity in Hyrcania

"Freedman, an apostate Jew".


Benjamin H. Freedman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jesus was Not A Jew

Benjamin H. Freedman, Jewish Historian - Researcher - Scholar.
From "Common Sense", p. 2-1-53 and 5-1-59


Benjamin Harrison[1] Freedman (1890 – May 1984)[2] was an American antisemitic and anti-Zionist activist.[3][4][5][6][7] Freedman was a partner in a dermatological institute and in small business. He converted from Judaism to Roman Catholicism.[8]

He was a financial backer of the author Conde McGinley, publisher of the periodical Common Sense.[15] In the 1955 libel trial by Rabbi Joachim Prinz against McGinley, Freedman testified that "he [Freedman] had given Mr. McGinley financial support of 'more than $10,000 but less than $100,000'".[16] Prinz had sued McGinley for calling him a "red rabbi."

At the Henry George School, Benjamin Freedman spoke on "The Genesis of Middle East Tensions".[17] Long John Nebel reported on WNBC that Freedman would discuss anti-Semitism.[18] Freedman was politically active until the mid-1970s when he was well over 85 years old. He died in May 1984 at the age of 94.[19][20]

Freedman opposed the nomination of Anna M. Rosenberg to be Assistant Secretary of Defense in 1950.[21] An article in the ADL Bulletin entitled The Plot Against Ann Rosenberg attributed the attacks on Rosenberg's loyalty to "professional anti-Semites and lunatic nationalists," including the "Jew-baiting cabal of John Rankin, Benjamin Freedman, and Gerald Smith."[5]

Freedman, an apostate Jew, was well known to the Anti-Defamation League and the American Jewish Committee as an active supporter of the Arab cause in the Middle East. (fn 33) In the course of his erratic and often contradictory testimony before the Senate committee, Freedman revealed the roles played by anti-Semitic agitators and right-wing anticommunists — including Gerald L.K. Smith, Conde McGinley, the "Reverend" Wesley Swift, Congressman John Rankin, Senator Joseph McCarthy, and J.B. Matthews — in the campaign against the Rosenberg appointment. (fn 34)[5]
He is mentioned in a report by the House Un-American Activities Committee.[22]

Johannes Aventinus


Johann Georg Turmair (Thurmayr) or Johannes Aventinus (July 4, 1477 – January 9, 1534) was a Bavarian humanist historian and philologist. Aventinus is the Latinized name of his birthplace, Abensberg.[1] Aventinus wrote Annals of Bavaria, a valuable record of the early history of Germany.[2]

Historian of Bavaria

In 1517, William appointed him as Bavaria's official historian and commissioned him to write a history of the country.[3] Many of the important authorities which Aventinus collected for this purpose have been preserved only in his copies. He embodied a critical treatment of them in a complete history of Bavaria, Annales Bojorum (Annals of Bavaria). His condensed German version of it, the Bayerische Chronik, is the first important history in the German language.[3]
[edit]



Teutonic genealogy

In his Chronik, Aventinus fabricated a succession of Teutonic kings stretching back to the Great Flood, ruling over vast swathes of Germany and surrounding regions until the 1st century BC, and involving themselves in numerous events from Biblical and Classical history.
These rulers and their exploits are mostly fictitious, though some are derived from mythological, legendary or historical figures. Examples of the latter are Boiger, Kels II and Teutenbuecher, whose joint reign is given as 127–100 BC, and who are based on King Boiorix of the Cimbri, the unnamed king of the Ambrones, and King Teutobod of the Teutons.
