He built an altar to the god Jupiter.

<em>Antiochus IV </em>was the 8th ruler of the Seleucid empire. He called himself 'the visible god' because he believed that he and Jupiter were identical. The <em>visible</em> refers to the fact that the planet Jupiter can be seen with a naked eye. He identified himself with<em> Jupiter</em> and many people  thought him a madman. His biggest enemies were the Jews and he was determined to exterminate them.

In 168 BC, he devastated Jerusalem and put a pig on the Temple's altar there. <em>He then erected an altar to Jupiter,</em> killed many Jews, destroyed temples and copies of Scriptures and put many Jews into slavery. He also tortured many of them in order to renounce their religion.
