THE TIME BETWEEN THE TESTAMENTS

The World at the End of the Old Testament Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream of 4 Kingdoms The Writing on the Wall (539 BC) Vision of the Ram and the Goat Vashti deposed (482 BC) Esther Becomes Queen (478 BC)

The Persian War ( BC) Battle of Marathon (490 BC) Xerxes Invades Greece Pass of Thermopylae Battle of Salamis (480 BC)

Quote from Wikipedia ( “The battle of Salamis has been described by many historians (among them Victor Davis Hanson, Donald Kagan and John Keegan) as the single most significant battle in human history. The Greek victory protected the nascent and singular traditions of democracy and individual rights, as well as guarding Greek philosophy and culture. This meant the eventual flowering of Western culture, which would likely have been snuffed out completely, had the Persians overrun Greece. Due to the enormous and wide- ranging influence of Western culture on all of human civilization, as well as the huge success of Western culture in its own right, it is literally possible that the world today would be utterly and basically different had the Greeks lost at Salamis (emphasis added).

Flourishing of Classical Greek Civilization ( BC) Rebuilding of Athens Beauty Truth Philosophers Acts 17:16-21

Macedonian Conquests and Hellenization Rise of Macedonia and conquest of Greece (338 BC) Respect for Greek Civilization Macedonia (Greece) Conquers Persia (330 BC) Spread of Greek Culture and Language Alexander the Great
