1 Maccabees 1:7 In-Context

5 And after these things he fell sick and perceived that he would die.

6 Therefore he called his servants, such as were honorable and had been brought up with him from his youth, and parted his kingdom among them while he was yet alive.

7 So Alexander reigned twelve years, and then died.

8 And his servants began to rule every one in his place.

9 And after his death they all put crowns upon themselves; so did their sons after them many years; and evils were multiplied on the earth.
