1 Maccabees 9:30

Listen to 1 Maccabees 9:30
30 So today we choose you to succeed him as our ruler and commander to carry on our war."

1 Maccabees 9:30 In-Context

28 Then all the friends of Judas came together and said to Jonathan,
29 "Since your brother Judas died, there has been no one like him to lead us against our enemies, against Bacchides and those of our own nation who oppose us.
30 So today we choose you to succeed him as our ruler and commander to carry on our war."
31 Jonathan accepted the leadership that day and took the place of his brother Judas.
32 When Bacchides learned of this, he made up his mind to kill Jonathan.
