Many historians have chronicled the Hasmonaeans' territorial acquisitions. In sum, it took them twenty-five years to win control of the tiny territory of Judaea and get rid of the Seleucid colony of royalist Jews (with, presumably, gentile officials and garrison) in Jerusalem. [...] However, in the last years before its fall, the Hasmonaeans were already strong enough to acquire, partly by negotiation, partly by conquest, a little territory north and south of Judaea and a corridor on the west to the coast at Jaffa/Joppa. This was briefly taken from them by Antiochus Sidetes, but soon regained, and in the half-century from Sidetes' death in 129 to Alexander Jannaeus' death in 76 they overran most of Palestine and much of western and northern Transjordan. First John Hyrcanus took over the hills of southern and central Palestine (Idumaea and the territories of Shechem, Samaria and Scythopolis) in 128–104; then his son, Aristobulus I, took Galilee in 104–103, and Aristobulus' brother and successor, Jannaeus, in about eighteen years of warfare (103–96, 86–76) conquered and reconquered the coastal plain, the northern Negev, and western edge of Transjordan.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=The+Cambridge+History+of+Judaism%3A+Volume+3%3A+The+Early+Roman+Period&rft.atitle=The+Gentiles+in+Judaism+125+BCE+-+66+CE&rft.volume=3&rft.pages=192-249&rft.date=1999&rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1017%2Fchol9780521243773.008&rft.isbn=978-0-521-24377-3&rft.aulast=Smith&rft.aufirst=Morton&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cambridge.org%2Fcore%2Fbooks%2Fcambridge-history-of-judaism%2Fgentiles-in-judaism-125-bcece-66%2F1AC78E99125BFE8E215AC8137DD8FE32&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIsraelites" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-auto2-150"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-auto2_150-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFBen-Eliyahu2019" class="citation book cs1">Ben-Eliyahu, Eyal (30 April 2019). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://worldcat.org/oclc/1103519319"><i>Identity and Territory: Jewish Perceptions of Space in Antiquity</i></a>.
