15 King Alexandros (Alexander) heard all the promises which Demetrios had sent to Yonatan. They told him of the battles and the valiant actions which he and his kindred had done, and of the troubles which they had endured. 16 So he said, “Could we find another man like him? Now we will make him our[fn] friend and ally.” 17 He wrote a letter and sent it to him, in these words, saying, 18 “King Alexandros to his brother Yonatan, greetings. 19 We have heard of you, that you are a mighty man of valour, and worthy to be our[fn] friend. 20 Now we have appointed you this day to be high priest of your nation, and to be called the king’s[fn] friend, and to take our side, and to keep friendship with us.” He also sent to him a purple robe and a golden crown.
21 And Yonatan put on the holy garments in the seventh month of the one hundred sixtieth year,[fn] at the feast of tabernacles; and he gathered together forces and provided weapons in abundance.
