1 Maccabees 13:27 In-Context

25 Simon sent someone to get the bones of Jonathan his brother, and he buried him in Modein, the city of his ancestors.

26 All Israel mourned Jonathan with great expressions of grief for many days.

27 Simon built a monument over the tomb of his father and his brothers. He made it high so that all might see it. It had polished stone at the front and back.

28 He also set up seven pyramids, opposite each other, for his father and mother and four brothers.

29 He devised an elaborate site for the pyramids, setting up great columns around them. On the columns, he put suits of armor for a permanent memorial. Beside the suits of armor, he carved ships so that all who sail the sea might see them.
