2 Maccabees 14:24 Context
22Iudas placed armed men ready in conuenient places, lest some treachery should bee suddenly practised by the enemies; so they made a peaceable cōference. 23Now Nicanor abode in Ierusalem, and did no hurt, but sent away the people that came flocking vnto him. 24And hee would not willingly haue Iudas out of his sight: for hee loued the man from his heart. 25He praied him also to take a wife, and to beget children: so he maried, was quiet, and tooke part of this life. 26But Alcimus perceiuing the loue that was betwixt them, and considering the couenants that were made, came to Demetrius, and tolde him that Nicanor was not well affected towards the state, for that he had ordained Iudas, a traitor to his realme, to be the kings successour.
