Seleucids n. 西流基王朝(公元前312~前64,统治小亚细亚的古希腊王朝)
- Seleucus or Antiochus,so whenever you see the King of the North it refers to one of the Seleucids.
塞琉古或者安条克,北方的王指的一定是塞琉西帝国。 - On the whole, the Seleucids, and the other dynasties which gradually grew up, dealt tolerably with them, but there were exceptions.
大体上说,塞琉西王朝以及其他逐渐兴起的王朝对待他们都相当宽大,但是也有例外。 - What's important for us though is really the Seleucids and the Ptolemies because if you draw a line separating Syria from Egypt, the line goes right through Palestine.
对我们最重要的,还是塞琉西王朝和托勒密王朝,因为如果在叙利亚和埃及间划一条线,就会穿过巴勒斯坦。
