1 Maccabees 1:28 In-Context

27 Every bridegroom was saddened, and intended brides sat mourning in their chambers.

28 Even the land shook for its people, and all of Jacob's house was clothed with shame.

29 Two years later, to collect tribute from the Judean cities, King Antiochus sent his chief officer, who came to Jerusalem with a large army.

30 The agent spoke peaceably and the Jews believed him, but he was deceitful. Without warning, he attacked the city, dealt it a brutal blow, and killed many Israelites.
