But the land is ruled by Antiochus IV, who issues a decree that Jews must conform to Syrian laws upon pain of death. Judah's father resists, igniting a war that will cost him his life. The miraculous story of the courageous Maccabees is told through the eyes of Judah's wife, who learns that love requires courage and sacrifice. |
