1 and 2 Maccabees A New Translation

The New translation of the Maccabees Bible took me down an historical and spirtual path of enlightenment that not only educated but also motivated me to apply many of the disciplines of the Maccabee dynasty in my own everyday life. For the scholar and the lay person alike, Goldstein's commentary provides additional insight into the terms, contradictions and many interpretations that abound within the Maccabees Bible. I personally found the books to be both insperational and educational.
