²⁵ Jonathan’s Funeral. Simon sent for the body of his brother Jonathan and buried him in Modein, the city of his ancestors. ²⁶ There was great lamentation for him throughout Israel, and the mourning lasted for many days. ²⁷ Over the tomb of his father and brothers Simon erected a tall monument that was visible from a great distance, composed of polished stone back and front.
