MA1 10:25 Removed trailing space in v~: So he sent to them this message:

MA1 10:25 Removed trailing space in p~: “King Demetrius to the nation of the Jews, greetings.

MA1 10:26 Removed trailing space in v~: Since as you have kept your covenants with us, and continued in our friendship, and have not joined yourselves to our enemies, we have heard of this, and are glad.

MA1 10:27 Removed trailing space in v~: Now continue still to keep faith with us, and we will repay you with good in return for your dealings with us.

MA1 10:28 Removed trailing space in v~: We will grant you many immunities and give you gifts.

MA1 10:29 Removed trailing space in v~: “Now I free you and release all the Jews from the tributes, from the salt tax, and from the crown levies.

MA1 10:30 Removed trailing space in v~: Instead of the third part of the seed, and instead of half of the fruit of the trees, which falls to me to receive, I release it from this day and henceforth, so that I will not take it from the land of Judah, and from the three districts which are added to it from the country of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth and for all time.

MA1 10:31 Removed trailing space in v~: Let Jerusalem be holy and free, with her borders, tithes, and taxes.

MA1 10:32 Removed trailing space in v~: I yield up also my authority over the citadel which is at Jerusalem, and give it to the high priest, that he may appoint in it men whom he chooses to keep it.

MA1 10:33 Removed trailing space in v~: Every soul of the Jews who has been carried captive from the land of Judah into any part of my kingdom, I set at liberty without payment. Let all officials also cancel the taxes on their livestock.

MA1 10:34 Removed trailing space in v~: “All the feasts, the Sabbaths, new moons, appointed days, three days before a feast, and three days after a feast, let them all be days of immunity and release for all the Jews who are in my kingdom.

MA1 10:35 Removed trailing space in v~: No man shall have authority to exact anything from any of them, or to trouble them concerning any matter.

MA1 10:36 Removed trailing space in v~: “Let there be enrolled among the king’s forces about thirty thousand men of the Jews, and pay shall be given to them, as is due to all the king’s forces.

MA1 10:37 Removed trailing space in v~: Of them, some shall be placed in the king’s great strongholds, and some of them shall be placed over the affairs of the kingdom, which are positions of trust. Let those who are over them and their rulers be of themselves, and let them walk after their own laws, even as the king has commanded in the land of Judah.

MA1 10:38 Removed trailing space in v~: “The three districts that have been added to Judea from the country of Samaria, let them be annexed to Judea, that they may be reckoned to be under one ruler, that they may not obey any other authority than the high priest’s.

MA1 10:39 Removed trailing space in v~: As for Ptolemais and its land, I have given it as a gift to the sanctuary that is at Jerusalem, for the expenses of the sanctuary.

MA1 10:40 Removed trailing space in v~: I also give every year fifteen thousand shekels of silver from the king’s revenues from the places that are appropriate.

MA1 10:41 Removed trailing space in v~: And all the additional funds which those who manage the king’s affairs didn’t pay as in the first years, they shall give from now on toward the works of the temple.

MA1 10:42 Removed trailing space in v~: Besides this, the five thousand shekels of silver which they received from the uses of the sanctuary from the revenue year by year is also released, because it belongs to the priests who minister there.

MA1 10:43 Removed trailing space in v~: Whoever flees to the temple that is at Jerusalem, and within all of its borders, whether one owe money to the king, or any other matter, let them go free, along with all that they have in my kingdom.

MA1 10:44 Removed trailing space in v~: For the building and renewing of the structures of the sanctuary, the expense shall also be given out of the king’s revenue.

MA1 10:45 Removed trailing space in v~: For the building of the walls of Jerusalem and fortifying it all around, the expense shall also be given out of the king’s revenue, also for the building of the walls in Judea.”

MA1 10:46 Removed trailing space in v~: Now when Jonathan and the people heard these words, they gave no credence to them, and didn’t accept them, because they remembered the great evil which he had done in Israel, and that he had afflicted them very severely.

MA1 10:47 Removed trailing space in v~: They were well pleased with Alexander, because he was the first who spoke words of peace to them, and they were allies with him always.

MA1 10:48 Removed trailing space in v~: King Alexander gathered together great forces and encamped near Demetrius.

MA1 10:49 Removed trailing space in v~: The two kings joined battle, and the army of Alexander fled; and Demetrius followed after him, and prevailed against them.

MA1 10:50 Removed trailing space in v~: He strengthened the battle exceedingly until the sun went down; and Demetrius fell that day.

MA1 10:51 Removed trailing space in v~: Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemy king of Egypt with this message:

MA1 10:52 Removed trailing space in v~: “Since I have returned to my kingdom, and am seated on the throne of my fathers, and have established my dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and have taken possession of our country—

MA1 10:53 Removed trailing space in v~: yes, I joined the battle with him, and he and his army were defeated by us, and we sat on the throne of his kingdom—

MA1 10:54 Removed trailing space in v~: now also let’s make friends with one another. Give me now your daughter as my wife. I will be joined with you, and will give both you and her gifts worthy of you.”

MA1 10:55 Removed trailing space in v~: Ptolemy the king answered, saying, “Happy is the day you returned to the land of your ancestors and sat on the throne of their kingdom.

MA1 10:56 Removed trailing space in v~: Now I will do to you as you have written, but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another; and I will join with you, even as you have said.”

MA1 10:57 Removed trailing space in v~: So Ptolemy went out of Egypt, himself and Cleopatra his daughter, and came to Ptolemais in the one hundred sixty-second year.\f + \fr 10:57 \ft circa B.C. 151. \f*

MA1 10:61 Removed trailing space in v~: Some malcontents out of Israel, men who were transgressors of the law, gathered together against him to complain against him; but the king paid no attention to them.

MA1 10:62 Removed trailing space in v~: The king commanded that they take off Jonathan’s garments and clothe him in purple, and they did so.

MA1 10:63 Removed trailing space in v~: The king made him sit with him, and said to his princes, “Go out with him into the midst of the city, and proclaim that no man may complain against him of any matter, and let no man trouble him for any reason.”

MA1 10:64 Removed trailing space in v~: It came to pass, when those who complained against him saw his honor according to the proclamation, and saw him clothed in purple, they all fled away.

MA1 10:65 Removed trailing space in v~: The king gave him honor, and enrolled him among his chief friends,\f + \fr 10:65 \ft See 1 Maccabees 11:27; 2 Maccabees 8:9. Compare 1 Maccabees 2:18; 10:16, etc. \f* and made him a captain and governor of a province.

MA1 10:66 Removed trailing space in v~: Then Jonathan returned to Jerusalem with peace and gladness.

MA1 10:67 Removed trailing space in v~: In the one hundred sixty-fifth year,\f + \fr 10:67 \ft circa B.C. 148. \f* Demetrius, son of Demetrius, came out of Crete into the land of his ancestors.

MA1 10:67 Found footnote ending with space in \v~: In the one hundred sixty-fifth year,\f + \fr 10:67 \ft circa B.C. 148. \f* Demetrius, son of Demetrius, came out of Crete into the land of his ancestors.

MA1 10:68 Removed trailing space in v~: When King Alexander heard of it, he grieved exceedingly and returned to Antioch.

MA1 10:69 Removed trailing space in v~: Demetrius appointed Apollonius, who was over Coelesyria, and he gathered together a great army, and encamped against Jamnia, and sent to Jonathan the high priest, saying,

MA1 10:70 Removed trailing space in v~: “You alone lift up yourself against us, but I am ridiculed and in reproach because of you. Why do you assume authority against us in the mountains?

MA1 10:71 Removed trailing space in v~: Now therefore, if you trust in your forces, come down to us into the plain, and let’s match strength with each other there; for the power of the cities is with me.

MA1 10:72 Removed trailing space in v~: Ask and learn who I am, and the rest who help us. They say, ‘Your foot can’t stand before our face; for your ancestors have been put to flight twice in their own land.’

MA1 10:73 Removed trailing space in v~: Now you won’t be able to withstand the cavalry and such an army as this in the plain, where is there is no stone or pebble, or place to flee.”

MA1 10:74 Removed trailing space in v~: Now when Jonathan heard the words of Apollonius, he was moved in his mind, and he chose ten thousand men, and went out from Jerusalem; and Simon his brother met him to help him.

MA1 10:75 Removed trailing space in v~: Then he encamped against Joppa. The people of the city shut him out, because Apollonius had a garrison in Joppa.

MA1 10:76 Removed trailing space in v~: So they fought against it. The people of the city were afraid, and opened to him; and Jonathan became master of Joppa.

MA1 10:77 Removed trailing space in v~: Apollonius heard about that, and he gathered an army of three thousand cavalry, and a great army, and went to Azotus as though he were on a journey, and at the same time advanced onward into the plain, because he had a multitude of cavalry which he trusted.

MA1 10:78 Removed trailing space in v~: He pursued him to Azotus, and the armies joined battle.\f + \fr 10:78 \ft Most of the authorities here repeat \fqa after him.\f*

MA1 10:79 Removed trailing space in v~: Apollonius had secretly left a thousand cavalry behind them.

MA1 10:80 Removed trailing space in v~: Jonathan learned that there was an ambush behind him. They surrounded his army, and shot their arrows at the people, from morning until evening;

MA1 10:81 Removed trailing space in v~: but the people stood fast, as Jonathan commanded them; and the enemy’s horses grew tired.

MA1 10:82 Removed trailing space in v~: Then Simon brought forward his army and joined battle with the phalanx (for the cavalry were exhausted), and they were defeated by him and fled.

MA1 10:83 Removed trailing space in v~: The cavalry were scattered in the plain. They fled to Azotus and entered into Beth-dagon, their idol’s temple, to save themselves.

MA1 10:84 Removed trailing space in v~: Jonathan burned Azotus and the cities around it and took their spoils. He burned the temple of Dagon and those who fled into it with fire.

MA1 10:85 Removed trailing space in v~: Those who had fallen by the sword plus those who were burned were about eight thousand men.

MA1 10:89 Removed trailing space in v~: He sent him a gold buckle, as the custom is to give to the king’s kindred. He gave him Ekron and all its land for a possession.

MA1 11:1 Removed trailing space in v~: Then the king of Egypt gathered together great forces, as the sand which is by the sea shore, and many ships, and sought to make himself master of Alexander’s kingdom by deceit, and to add it to his own kingdom.

MA1 11:2 Removed trailing space in v~: He went out into Syria with words of peace, and the people of the cities opened their gates to him and met him; for King Alexander’s command was that they should meet him, because he was his father-in-law.

MA1 11:4 Removed trailing space in v~: But when he came near to Azotus, they showed him the temple of Dagon burned with fire, and Azotus and its pasture lands destroyed, and the bodies cast out, and those who had been burned, whom he burned in the war, for they had made heaps of them in his way.

MA1 11:10 Removed trailing space in v~: for I regret that I gave my daughter to him, for he tried to kill me.

MA1 11:11 Removed trailing space in v~: He accused him, because he coveted his kingdom.

MA1 11:12 Removed trailing space in v~: Taking his daughter from him, he gave her to Demetrius, and was estranged from Alexander, and their enmity was openly seen.

MA1 11:13 Removed trailing space in v~: Ptolemy entered into Antioch, and put on himself the crown of Asia. He put two crowns upon his head, the crown of Egypt and that of Asia.

MA1 11:14 Removed trailing space in v~: But King Alexander was in Cilicia at that time, because the people of that region were in revolt.

MA1 11:15 Removed trailing space in v~: When Alexander heard of it, he came against him in war. Ptolemy marched out and met him with a strong force, and put him to flight.

MA1 11:16 Removed trailing space in v~: Alexander fled into Arabia, that he might be sheltered there; but King Ptolemy was triumphant.

MA1 11:30 Removed trailing space in v~: “King Demetrius to his brother Jonathan, and to the nation of the Jews, greetings.

MA1 11:31 Removed trailing space in v~: The copy of the letter which we wrote to Lasthenes our kinsman concerning you, we have written also to you, that you may see it.

MA1 11:32 Removed trailing space in v~: ‘King Demetrius to Lasthenes his father, greetings.

MA1 11:33 Removed trailing space in v~: We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews, who are our friends, and observe what is just toward us, because of their good will toward us.

MA1 11:34 Removed trailing space in v~: We have confirmed therefore to them the borders of Judea, and also the three governments of Aphaerema, Lydda, and Ramathaim (these were added to Judea from the country of Samaria), and all their territory to them, for all who do sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the king’s dues which the king received of them yearly before from the produce of the earth and the fruits of trees.

MA1 11:35 Removed trailing space in v~: As for the other payments to us from henceforth, of the tithes and the taxes that pertain to us, and the salt pits, and the crown taxes due to us, all these we will give back to them.

MA1 11:36 Removed trailing space in v~: Not one of these grants shall be annulled from this time forth and forever.

MA1 11:37 Removed trailing space in v~: Now therefore be careful to make a copy of these things, and let it be given to Jonathan, and let it be set up on the holy mountain in a suitable and conspicuous place.’”

MA1 11:38 Removed trailing space in v~: When King Demetrius saw that the land was quiet before him, and that no resistance was made to him, he sent away all his troops, each man to his own place, except the foreign troops, which he had raised from the islands of the Gentiles. So all the troops of his fathers hated him.

MA1 11:39 Removed trailing space in v~: Now Tryphon was one of those who previously had been on Alexander’s side, and he saw that all the forces murmured against Demetrius. So he went to Imalcue the Arabian, who was raising up Antiochus the young child of Alexander,

MA1 11:40 Removed trailing space in v~: and urgently insisted to him that he should deliver him to him, that he might reign in his father’s place. He told him all that Demetrius had done, and the hatred with which his forces hated him; and he stayed there many days.

MA1 11:41 Removed trailing space in v~: Now Jonathan sent to King Demetrius, that he should remove the troops of the citadel from Jerusalem, and the troops who were in the strongholds; for they fought against Israel continually.

MA1 11:42 Removed trailing space in v~: Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying, “I will not only do this for you and your nation, but I will greatly honor you and your nation, if I find an opportunity.

MA1 11:43 Removed trailing space in v~: Now therefore you shall do well if you send me men who will fight for me; for all my forces have revolted.”

MA1 11:47 Removed trailing space in v~: The king called the Jews to help him, and they were gathered together to him all at once, and they dispersed themselves in the city, and killed that day about one hundred thousand.

MA1 11:48 Removed trailing space in v~: They set the city on fire, and seized many spoils that day, and saved the king.

MA1 11:49 Removed trailing space in v~: The people of the city saw that the Jews had taken control of the city as they pleased, and they became faint in their hearts, and they cried out to the king with supplication, saying,

MA1 11:50 Removed trailing space in v~: “Give us your right hand, and let the Jews cease from fighting against us and the city.”

MA1 11:51 Removed trailing space in v~: They threw away their weapons and made peace. The Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and before all who were in his kingdom. Then they returned to Jerusalem, having much plunder.

MA1 11:52 Removed trailing space in v~: So King Demetrius sat on the throne of his kingdom, and the land was quiet before him.

MA1 11:53 Removed trailing space in v~: He lied in all that he spoke, and estranged himself from Jonathan, and didn’t repay him according to the benefits with which he had repaid him, and treated him very harshly.

MA1 11:58 Removed trailing space in v~: He sent to him golden vessels and furniture for the table, and gave him permission to drink in golden vessels, and to be clothed in purple, and to have a golden buckle.

MA1 11:59 Removed trailing space in v~: He made his brother Simon governor from the Ladder of Tyre to the borders of Egypt.

MA1 11:60 Removed trailing space in v~: Jonathan went out and took his journey beyond the river and through the cities. All the forces of Syria gathered themselves to him to be his allies. He came to Ascalon, and the people of the city met him honorably.

MA1 11:61 Removed trailing space in v~: He departed from there to Gaza, and the people of Gaza shut him out. So he besieged it and burned its pasture lands with fire, and plundered them.

MA1 11:62 Removed trailing space in v~: The people of Gaza pleaded with Jonathan, and he gave them his right hand, and took the sons of their princes for hostages, and sent them away to Jerusalem. Then he passed through the country as far as Damascus.

MA1 11:63 Removed trailing space in v~: Then Jonathan heard that Demetrius’ princes had come to Kedesh, which is in Galilee, with a great army, intending to remove him from his office.

MA1 11:64 Removed trailing space in v~: He went to meet them, but he left Simon his brother in the country.

MA1 11:65 Removed trailing space in v~: Simon encamped against Bethsura, and fought against it many days, and hemmed it in.

MA1 11:66 Removed trailing space in v~: They asked him to give them his right hand, and he gave it to them. He removed them from there, took possession of the city, and set a garrison over it.

MA1 11:67 Removed trailing space in v~: Jonathan and his army encamped at the water of Gennesareth, and early in the morning they marched to the plain of Hazor.

MA1 11:68 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, an army of foreigners met him in the plain. They laid an ambush for him in the mountains, but they themselves met him face to face.

MA1 11:69 Removed trailing space in v~: But those who lay in ambush rose out of their places and joined battle. All those who were on Jonathan’s side fled.

MA1 11:70 Removed trailing space in v~: Not one of them was left, except Mattathias the son of Absalom, and Judas the son of Chalphi, captains of the forces.

MA1 11:71 Removed trailing space in v~: Jonathan tore his clothes, put dirt on his head, and prayed.

MA1 11:72 Removed trailing space in v~: He turned again to them in battle, and routed them, and they fled.

MA1 11:73 Removed trailing space in v~: When the men on his side who had fled saw this, they returned to him and pursued with him to Kedesh to their camp, and they encamped there.

MA1 11:74 Removed trailing space in v~: About three thousand men of the foreigners fell on that day. Then Jonathan returned to Jerusalem.

MA1 12:16 Removed trailing space in v~: We chose therefore Numenius the son of Antiochus and Antipater the son of Jason, and have sent them to the Romans, to renew the friendship that we had with them, and the former alliance.

MA1 12:47 Removed trailing space in v~: But he reserved to himself three thousand men, of whom he left two thousand in Galilee, but one thousand went with him.

MA1 12:48 Removed trailing space in v~: Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, the people of Ptolemais shut the gates and seized him. They killed all those who came in with him with the sword.

MA1 12:50 Removed trailing space in v~: They perceived that he had been seized and had perished, along with those who were with him. They encouraged one another and went on their way close together, prepared to fight.

MA1 12:52 Removed trailing space in v~: They all came in peace into the land of Judah, and they mourned for Jonathan and those who were with him, and they were very afraid. All Israel mourned with a great mourning.

MA1 12:53 Removed trailing space in v~: And all the Gentiles who were around them sought to destroy them utterly; for they said, “They have no ruler nor anyone to help them. Now therefore let’s fight against them, and take away their memory from among men.”
