'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Asmoneans}}'''. Priest‐kings of Israel whose dynasty reigned over the Jews for 126 years. They promulgated the Canon of the Mosaic Testament in contradistinction to the “Apocrypha” (q.v.) or Secret Books of the Alexandrian Jews, the Kabbalists, and maintained the dead‐letter meaning of the former. Till the time of John Hyrcanus, they were Ascedeans ''(Chasidim'') and Pharisees; but later they became Sadducees or Zadokites, asserters of Sacerdotal rule as contradistinguished from Rabbinical. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Asmoneans}}'''.
