1 Maccabees 10:10 In-Context

8 These people were very concerned when they heard that the king had given him authority to recruit troops.

9 The inhabitants in the elevated fortress released the hostages to Jonathan, and he returned them to their parents.

10 Jonathan took up residence in Jerusalem and began to rebuild and restore the city.

11 He directed the workers to build the walls and encircle Mount Zion with squared stones for better reinforcement, which they did.

12 Then from the fortress that Bacchides had built, the foreigners fled.
