DANIEL—NOTE ON Daniel 11:28 Antiochus IV Epiphanes returned to his land after raiding Egypt in 169 B.C. On his way home he stopped in Palestine and found a rebellion going on. He dealt viciously with the Jews (his heart shall be set against the holy covenant), killing eighty thousand men, women, and children and looting the temple. The Jews were furious at the brutality of this ruler and began a full-fledged revolt.
