Sons Of Greece [1]
"I will stir up thy sons, O Z ion, against thy sons, O G reece, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man" ( Zechariah 9:13 ). The passage doubtless refers to the captive Hebrews who are held by the Greeks. The exhortation is to insurrection against the Greeks. Although bearing a striking similarity to the passage in Joel 3:6 , there is evidently no connection between the two. In the first, there was conflict between the nations; in the second, simply a reflection upon Tyre and Sidon for having sold into Greece certain Jewish captives. From a Jewish standpoint the Maccabean wars were really between Jews and Greeks. See Javan; Asmoneans .
