Löydetty 2292 Tulokset: Antiochus King

• While such was the state of affairs, it happened that the people of Tarsus and of Mallus revolted because their cities had been given as a present to Antiochis, the king's concubine. (2 Maccabees 4, 30)

• So the king went hastily to settle the trouble, leaving Andronicus, a man of high rank, to act as his deputy. (2 Maccabees 4, 31)

• When the king returned from the region of Cilicia, the Jews in the city appealed to him with regard to the unreasonable murder of Onias, and the Greeks shared their hatred of the crime. (2 Maccabees 4, 36)

• Therefore Antiochus was grieved at heart and filled with pity, and wept because of the moderation and good conduct of the deceased; (2 Maccabees 4, 37)

• When the king came to Tyre, three men sent by the senate presented the case before him. (2 Maccabees 4, 44)

• But Menelaus, already as good as beaten, promised a substantial bribe to Ptolemy son of Dorymenes to win over the king. (2 Maccabees 4, 45)

• Therefore Ptolemy, taking the king aside into a colonnade as if for refreshment, induced the king to change his mind. (2 Maccabees 4, 46)

• About this time Antiochus made his second invasion of Egypt. (2 Maccabees 5, 1)

• When a false rumor arose that Antiochus was dead, Jason took no less than a thousand men and suddenly made an assault upon the city. When the troops upon the wall had been forced back and at last the city was being taken, Menelaus took refuge in the citadel. (2 Maccabees 5, 5)

• When news of what had happened reached the king, he took it to mean that Judea was in revolt. So, raging inwardly, he left Egypt and took the city by storm. (2 Maccabees 5, 11)

• Not content with this, Antiochus dared to enter the most holy temple in all the world, guided by Menelaus, who had become a traitor both to the laws and to his country. (2 Maccabees 5, 15)

• Antiochus was elated in spirit, and did not perceive that the Lord was angered for a little while because of the sins of those who dwelt in the city, and that therefore he was disregarding the holy place. (2 Maccabees 5, 17)
