Now viewing scripture range from the book of 1 Maccabees chapter 3:4 through chapter 3:7...
4 In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.
5 For He pursued the wicked, and sought them out, and burnt up those that vexed his people.
7 He grieved also many kings, and made Jacob glad with his acts, and his memorial is blessed for ever.
