there was only one malkha (hebrew- woman king or monarch) in all of jewish history; shlomtzion hamalkha, also called salome alexandria. she ruled after the death of her second husband, alexander yannai, because her sons were unfit to rule at the time. shlomtzion was a hasmonean queen of israel/judea who brought peace and prosperity to her kingdom for a short time. the hasmonean period was a troubled time for jews, and while she was a bright spot in history, her sons were never nearly such adept politicians and leaders. |
