2 Maccabees 3:12 Context
9And when he was come to Jerusalem, and had been courteously received of the high priest of the city, he told him what intelligence was given of the money, and declared wherefore he came, and asked if these things were so indeed. 10Then the high priest told him that there was such money laid up for the relief of widows and fatherless children: 11And that some of it belonged to Hircanus son of Tobias, a man of great dignity, and not as that wicked Simon had misinformed: the sum whereof in all was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold: 12And that it was altogether impossible that such wrongs should be done unto them, that had committed it to the holiness of the place, and to the majesty and inviolable sanctity of the temple, honoured over all the world. 13But Heliodorus, because of the king's commandment given him, said, That in any wise it must be brought into the king's treasury. 14So at the day which he appointed he entered in to order this matter: wherefore there was no small agony throughout the whole city. 15But the priests, prostrating themselves before the altar in their priests' vestments, called unto heaven upon him that made a law concerning things given to he kept, that they should safely be preserved for such as had committed them to be kept.
