<p> <strong> | <p> <strong> ARIUS </strong> ( 1Ma 12:7; 1Ma 12:20 ). A king of Sparta, grandson and successor of [[Cleomenes]] II. His reign lasted from b.c. 309 to b.c. 265, and he was contemporary with the high priest [[Onias]] I., the successor of Jaddua. [[Friendly]] letters were interchanged between [[Arius]] and Onias (probably about b.c. 300); and [[Jonathan]] Maccabeus refers to these communications in a letter which he sent by his ambassadors to [[Sparta]] ( <em> c </em> <em> [Note: circa, about.] </em> . b.c. 144), 1Ma 12:7 ff., 1Ma 12:19 ff. AV [Note: Authorized Version.] <strong> [[Darius]] </strong> in v. 7 is due to corrupt text. </p> | ||
