4th Syrian War (30 agos 219 anni a. C. – 4 feb 217 anni a. C.)
Descrizione:
Daniel 11:10-12
The campaigns of 219 BC and 218 BC carried the Seleucid armies almost to the confines of Ptolemaic Kingdom, but in 217 BC Ptolemy IV defeated Antiochus at the Battle of Raphia. This defeat nullified all Antiochus's successes and compelled him to withdraw north of Lebanon.
Philopater met Antiochus with a larger army. Even though he had less elephants, only 73 elephants, his total army with foot and horse amounted to a greater amount than his opponent. Philopater defeated Antiochus by slaying 10,000 foot, 3000 horse, and taking captive over 4000 prisoners. Philopater suffered the loss of only 700 horse and 1400 infantry. So the multitude was given into the hand of the king of the south, Philopater.
