4 Maccabees 13:24-26

Common English Bible

²⁴ They loved each other so much because they had been educated in the same Law, held the same moral values, and were raised together to live a life that is just. ²⁵ Their affection for each other and harmony grew even more because they shared a common passion for good character and conduct. ²⁶ Family love for each other was made even more desirable to them by their godly behavior.
