11:36-40 Some interpreters see these verses as a transition from the earthly Antiochus IV to a character larger than history (7:8). 11:36 Antiochus IV thought himself equal to God (2 Maccabees 9:1–10:12), but God would hem him in until the time of wrath was completed. • what has been determined will surely take place: Antiochus suddenly contracted a painful disease and died in 163 BC in the mountains of Persia (see 8:25; 1 Maccabees 4:52-53; 6:16; 2 Maccabees 9:4, 28; 10:5).
