5 Then all the godless traitorous Jews led by Alcimus, who wanted to be High Priest, went to Demetrius.

1 Maccabees 7:5 In-Context

3 When Demetrius heard about it, he said, "I don't want to see them."
4 So the soldiers killed them, and Demetrius took the throne.
5 Then all the godless traitorous Jews led by Alcimus, who wanted to be High Priest, went to Demetrius.
6 They brought accusations against the other Jews and said, "Judas and his brothers have killed everybody who supported you, and they have driven us out of our country.
7 We advise you to send someone whom you can trust to go and inspect all the damage done to our property and the king's territory and to punish Judas, his brothers, and all who support them."
