I Maccabees 6:14

Then he called Philip, one of his friends, and he made him regent over all his kingdom.

Friends, educated with him. He appointed him regent instead of Lysias. (Calmet) --- His son Eupator was only nine years old. (Appian.) --- He made him appear and be recognized by the army. Eupator means one "born of a good father." (Calmet)
