2 Maccabees 4:10

⁸promising unto the king by intercession three hundred and threescore talents of silver, and of another revenue eighty talents:

⁹beside this, he promised to assign a hundred and fifty more, if he might have license to set him up a place for exercise, and for the training up of youth in the fashions of the heathen, and to write them of Jerusalem by the name of Antiochians.

— 2 Maccabees 4:10 —

¹¹And the royal privileges granted of special favor to the Jews by the means of John the father of Eupolemus, who went ambassador to Rome for amity and aid, he took away; and putting down the governments which were according to the law, he brought up new customs against the law:

¹²for he built gladly a place of exercise under the tower itself, and brought the chief young men under his subjection, and made them wear a hat.
