2 Maccabees 4:34

34 Therefore Menelaus, taking Andronicus aside, prayed him to get Onias into his hands. Andronicus, being persuaded thereunto and coming to Onias in deceit, gave him his right hand with oaths; and though he was suspected by him, yet he persuaded him to come forth from the sanctuary, whom he shut up forthwith without regard for justice.

2 Maccabees 4:34 In-Context

32 Now Menelaus, supposing that he had gotten a suitable time, stole certain vessels of gold out of the temple, and gave some of them to Andronicus, and some he sold into Tyre and the cities round about.

33 When Onias knew assuredly of this, he reproved him, and withdrew himself into a sanctuary at Daphne, that lieth by Antioch.

35 For this cause not only the Jews, but many also of other nations, felt great indignation, and were much grieved for the unjust murder of the man.

36 And when the king had come back from the places about Cilicia, the Jews who were in the city, and certain of the Greeks who abhorred the fact also, complained because Onias was slain without cause.
