Alexander the Great on Bucephalus ‎This nineteenth-century engraving shows Alexander the Great (356-323 B.C.) astride his famous horse Bucephalus. The horse, born a year after Alexander, was considered too wild to ride until the 13-year old Alexander broke him. King and horse battled Alexander’s enemies together from Alexander’s accession to the Macedonian throne in 336 B.C. until Bucephalus was killed at the Battle of the Hydaspes in what is now Pakistan in 326 B.C. ‎ Deut 17:16, Judg 5:22, 1 Kgs 20:20, Esther 6:8–11, Prov 21:31, Rev 6:2–8

Alexander the Great on Bucephalus ‎Bucephalus, one of history’s most famous horses, carries Alexander the Great into the fray in this section of the first-century B.C. Pompeian mosaic depicting the Battle of Issus (333 B.C.) The Roman writer Plutarch recounts how a 13-year old Alexander broke the big-headed horse ( “Bucephalus” means “ox head” ) after many other men had tried and failed. In Plutarch’s legend, Alexander’s equestrian skills so impressed his father Philip that he declared, “Macedonia is too small for you, son!” ‎ Dan 8:5–8 , Dan 11:2–4 , 1 Macc 1:1 , 7 , 1 Macc 6:2 ‎Image by user Ruthven, from Wikimedia Commons.
