Yes, thanks for the correction, which I have now fixed in the lecture. I got your earlier note, but I just haven't had time to attend to it until now.

James Davila's lecture summary on pesharim
http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/divinity/pesharim.html

makes several good observations; a typo in the second historical allusion
section may be worth noting. For "Alexander Hyrcanus" read "Alexander
Jannaeus." This may be worth noting because evidence has increased that he was
the "wicked priest." For instance, many of the other proposed candidates are
too early or too late.

best,
Stephen Goranson
