1 Maccabees 14:10 In-Context

8 The Jews farmed their land in peace; the land produced its crops and the trees bore fruit.

9 The young men showed off their splendid military uniforms, while the old men sat around the city squares and talked about the great things that had happened.

10 Simon supplied the cities with food and provided them with weapons of defense. His fame spread everywhere.

11 He brought peace to the country, and Israel's joy knew no bounds.

12 Everyone lived in peace among his own grapevines and fig trees, and no one made them afraid.
