Löydetty 2284 Tulokset: King Demetrius

• Then the king of Egypt gathered great forces, like the sand by the seashore, and many ships; and he tried to get possession of Alexander's kingdom by trickery and add it to his own kingdom. (1 Maccabees 11, 1)

• He set out for Syria with peaceable words, and the people of the cities opened their gates to him and went to meet him, for Alexander the king had commanded them to meet him, since he was Alexander's father-in-law. (1 Maccabees 11, 2)

• They also told the king what Jonathan had done, to throw blame on him; but the king kept silent. (1 Maccabees 11, 5)

• Jonathan met the king at Joppa with pomp, and they greeted one another and spent the night there. (1 Maccabees 11, 6)

• And Jonathan went with the king as far as the river called Eleutherus; then he returned to Jerusalem. (1 Maccabees 11, 7)

• So King Ptolemy gained control of the coastal cities as far as Seleucia by the sea, and he kept devising evil designs against Alexander. (1 Maccabees 11, 8)

• He sent envoys to Demetrius the king, saying, "Come, let us make a covenant with each other, and I will give you in marriage my daughter who was Alexander's wife, and you shall reign over your father's kingdom. (1 Maccabees 11, 9)

• So he took his daughter away from him and gave her to Demetrius. He was estranged from Alexander, and their enmity became manifest. (1 Maccabees 11, 12)

• Now Alexander the king was in Cilicia at that time, because the people of that region were in revolt. (1 Maccabees 11, 14)

• So Alexander fled into Arabia to find protection there, and King Ptolemy was exalted. (1 Maccabees 11, 16)

• But King Ptolemy died three days later, and his troops in the strongholds were killed by the inhabitants of the strongholds. (1 Maccabees 11, 18)

• So Demetrius became king in the one hundred and sixty-seventh year. (1 Maccabees 11, 19)
