1 Maccabees

16 chapters from the King James Version Apocrypha (1611), with narrated audio for every chapter.

1 Maccabees is a history of the Jewish revolt against the Seleucid king Antiochus IV, from the rise of Mattathias and Judas Maccabeus to the reign of John Hyrcanus. It is the main source for the events behind Hanukkah. Catholic and Orthodox Bibles include it; the 1611 King James Bible printed it among the Apocrypha.
