1 Maccabees 11:51 In-Context

49 When the people saw that the Jews had gained control of the city as they pleased, their courage failed. They made a request of the king:
50 "Give us peace, and make the Jews stop fighting against us."
51 They threw down their weapons and made peace. So the Jews received honor from the king and all the people in his kingdom. They returned to Jerusalem with a large amount of treasure.
52 So King Demetrius sat on the throne of his kingdom, and the land was peaceful before him.
53 But he broke his word about all that he had said. He became estranged from Jonathan and didn't repay the favors that Jonathan had done him. Instead, he treated him harshly.
