As he was sleepless that night, the king asked for the Book of Chronicles and ordered that the record of his reign be read to him. (Esther 6, 1)
Esther's decree fixed these practices of Purim, and it was recorded in the book. (Esther 9, 32)
Blot them out of the book of life, and do not enroll them among the upright. (Psalms 69, 29)
Your eyes saw the course of my days; they were all recorded in your book before any of them came to be. (Psalms 139, 16)
They killed anyone they caught in possession of the book of the Covenant and who fulfilled the precepts of the Law, as the royal decree had ordered. (1 Maccabees 1, 57)
They opened the Book of the Law to look for an answer to their questions, just as the pagans consulted the images of their idols. (1 Maccabees 3, 48)
As we are about to celebrate the purification of the Temple on the twenty-fifth day of Chislev, it seems good to us to inform you, so that you, too, may celebrate the Feast of Tents and remember the fire that appeared when Nehemiah, who built the Temple and the altar, offered sacrifices. (2 Maccabees 1, 18)
Many years had passed, when in God's own time Nehemiah, who was commissioned by the king of Persia, sent the descendants of the priests who had hidden the fire to look for it. (2 Maccabees 1, 20)
But they reported to us that they did not find the fire but instead a thick liquid. So Nehemiah ordered them to draw it out and bring it to him. When the sacrifice had been prepared on the altar, Nehemiah ordered the priests to sprinkle the liquid on the wood and the victims placed on it. (2 Maccabees 1, 21)
While the sacrifice was being consumed, the priests together with all those present prayed. Jonathan led while Nehemiah and the rest responded. (2 Maccabees 1, 23)
and when the sacrifice was all consumed, Nehemiah ordered that the remaining liquid be poured over some large stones. (2 Maccabees 1, 31)
This matter became known, and it was reported to the king of the Persians that the liquid with which Nehemiah and his companions had burned the sacrifice was found in the place where the exiled priests had hidden the fire. (2 Maccabees 1, 33)
