| I Maccabees 10:21
| Then Jonathan put on the holy vestment in the seventh month, in the year one hundred and threescore, at the feast day of the tabernacles: and he gathered together an army, and made a great number of arms.
| Vestment, at the feast of tabernacles, the year [of the world] 3852, seven years after the death of Alcimus, and nine since Judas fell. It is not clear from Josephus, ([Antiquities?] 13:5., and 20:7.) whether the people chose him high priest, or they rather pressed him to accept the king's offer. (Calmet)
