Captives Introduction

     Captives is a one year study on the period of world history accurately prophesied of by Daniel in his vision of the multi-metaled statue. Representing four nations that would rise to world prominence, Daniel foretold the end of the Babylonian rule, the rise of Medo-Persia, the conquests  of Alexander the Great and the Grecian empire, followed by the harsh rule of the Romans.

  

 Spanning a 600 year period, our study will focus on the final 200 years of Biblical history recorded in the Old Testament, and give an overview of the 400 year gap between the testaments that included the Maccabean Revolt and the Golden Age of Greece.
