... and joined them to the province of Syria. 5. Now the occasions of this misery which came upon Jerusalem were Hyrcanus and Aristobulus, by raising a sedition one against the other; for now we lost our liberty, and became subject to the Romans, and were deprived of that country which we had gained by our arms from the Syrians, and were compelled to restore it to the Syrians. Moreover, the Romans exacted of us, in a little time, above ten thousand talents; and the royal authority, which was a dignity formerly bestowed on those that were high priests, by the right of their family, became the property of private men. But of ...

... the unanimous opinion of modern authors that the Great Battle of Nations of -561 in which the Persian crown prince, Cyrus, played a major role is nothing but a fairy tale concocted by Xenophon ( -430 to -357) in his Cyropaedia. Since it is generally believed that the cuneiform sources (had) known nothing of that war on Syrian or Assyrian soil, it is not even mentioned anymore in modern works on Cyrus. Moreover, modern Assyriology is convinced that, after 150 years of careful excavations, the imperial dimensions of the Achaemenids known from Jewish and Greek books, as well as from Persian inscriptions (e .g ., Behistun), proved to be " ...

... of inquiring after, and worthy of the king's library, but which, being written in characters and in a dialect of their own, will cause no small pains in getting them translated into the Greek tongue; (3 ) that the character in which they are written seems to be like to that which is the proper character of the Syrians, and that its sound, when pronounced, is like theirs also; and that this sound appears to be peculiar to themselves. Wherefore he said that nothing hindered why they might not get those books to be translated also; for while nothing is wanting that is necessary for that purpose, we may have their books also in this ...

54. The Secret of Baalbek (Concluded) [Journals] [Kronos]
... Baalath and Baal Gad (8 ) Also Baal Zaphon, or Zeus Cassius, was proposed as Baalbek.(9 ) In this connection it can be said that, according to the Talmud, Gad was the name of the planet Jupiter;(10) and Zeus Cassius signifies Jupiter of Lebanon; and Hamon was supposed to be a Syrian form of the name Amon(11) who, according to the Greek authors, was Zeus-Jupiter.(12) All this together, if correct, points toward the cult of Jupiter in Baalbek, a matter to which we shall return in one of the next sections. Besides Baal Gad, Baal Zaphon or Zeus Cassius, Baal ...

... book on Venus, noted that "a female association is almost universal." [4 ] And so it is, despite occasional protestations to the contrary. [5 ] The ancient Hebrews, for example, knew Venus as Kokabat, a name which translates as "she-star." [6 ] This name finds a cognate in the Syrian Kawkabta, "stella veneris, she star." [7 ] Among the Arabic peoples of Northern Syria and the Mesopotamian desert, Venus was known as al- Uzza and conceived as a warrior. She, too, was judged to be of female form: "In sources from the fifth century AD she is identified with Aphrodite by ...

But as for king Demetrius, who had a mind to make war against Hyrcanus, there was no opportunity nor room for it, while both the Syrians and the soldiers bare ill-will to him, because he was an ill man. But when they had sent ambassadors to Ptolemy, who was called Physcon, that he would send them one of the family at Seleueus, in order to take the kingdom, and he had sent them Alexander, who was called Zebina, with an army ...

... robbers stirred up the people to make war with the Romans, and said they ought not to obey them at all; and when any persons would not comply with them, they set fire to their villages, and plundered them. 7. And now it was that a great sedition arose between the Jews that inhabited Cesarea, and the Syrians who dwelt there also, concerning their equal right to the privileges belonging to citizens; for the Jews claimed the pre-eminence, because Herod their king was the builder of Cesarea, and because he was by birth a Jew. Now the Syrians did not deny what was alleged about Herod; but they said that Cesarea was formerly called Strato's ...

[Sculpted wall scenes show] rows of manacled captives. . . . The central register is headed by a Syrian prince whose special importance is stressed by his bulkier form and evident anger at the predicament in which he finds himself. If the deliverer came from Assyria the most likely candidate would be Adad-Nirari III, who received the tribute of Joash (847-832) the son of Jehoahaz. [34] There is no evidence yet, however, to ...

Venus as the Great Mother always rose from the water, the Universal Matrix, the Great Deep, the Abyss, and later they pictured her rising from the foam. Both Syrians and Phoenicians claim that a dove sat for several days in the Euphrates, the River of the Garden of Eden, on the egg of a fish, whence Venus was born. All fable and legend prove the origin of this Mother to be found at the Pole of Heaven, which point was the primordial Pillar of Heaven, the ...

60. The Two Faces of Love [Books] [de Grazia books]
... Aphrodite of the Love Affair is trespassing upon the identity of Ishtar. Ishtar is goddess of the morning star and also of the evening star in the usage of a removed culture. Aphrodite of the Greeks is made to be the goddess standing behind Phosphorus and Hesperus and their duality. Meanwhile she remains goddess of the Moon. Plato mentions a Syrian law-giver as the source of the name. But after considering this surprising suggestion for some time, I think now that Plato may have been of the opinion that a Syrian lawgiver with the advice of the court astronomers gave to the planet Venus the name of Ishtar or Astarte or another such name. In following this learned and authoritative source ...
