Verse #23. Good Success be to the Romans, and to the people of the Jews by sea, and by land, FOREVER: and far be the sword and enemy from them.
#24. But if there come first any war upon the Romans, or any of their confederates, in all their do minions:
#25 The nation of the Jews shall help them according as the time shall direct with all their HEART:
#26. neither shall they give them, whilst they are fighting, or furnish them with wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, hath seemed good to the Romans: and they shall obey their orders, without taking anything from them.
#27. In like manner also if war shall come first upon the nation of the Jews, The Romans shall help them with all their HEART, according as the time shall permit them:
#28. And there shall not be given to them that come to their aid, either wheat, or arms, or money, or ships, as it seemed good to the Romans: and they shall observe their orders without deceit.
#29. According to these articles did the Romans covenant with the people of the Jews.
#30 And, if after this, one party or the other shall have a mind to add to these articles, or take away anything, they may do it at their pleasure: and whatsoever they shall add, or take away, shall be ratified.
I understand this also not only a covenant, but also sort of a Marriage Contract also with the Roman Empire.
Any thoughts other then the political reasons ( I have a book that treats the political reasons behind why Machabee made this Covenant with the Romans ) why Judas Machabee would enter into this covenant. How Christ Jesus is Infinitely Perfectly Fulfilling this Covenant now in the present with His Bride Holy Mother Roman Catholic Church???

Since we all know and understand that Christ Jesus came also to Fulfill Scripture, The reason behind WHY God allowed His Only Betgotten Son to be born into the Latin speaking Roman Empire.Any thoughts other then the political reasons ( I have a book that treats the political reasons behind why Machabee made this Covenant with the Romans ) why Judas Machabee would enter into this covenant.
