=== Life Sketch ===
Onias I (Hebrew: חוניו ; Honiyya or Honio) was the son of the Jaddua mentioned in Nehemiah. According to Josephus, this Jaddua is said to have been a contemporary of Alexander the Great (reigned 336-323 BCE). I Maccabees regards Onias as a contemporary of the Spartan king Areus I (309-265 BCE). "Josephus is ... mistaken in placing it in the time of Onias III instead of Onias I, who was high priest c. 300 B.C. (cf. Ant. xi. 347)."
Simon the Just extolled in the Wisdom of Sirach (according to the Hebrew text the son of Jonathan, but according to the Greek text the son of Onias) and in legend was probably the son of Onias I or, according to some, of the latter's grandson Onias II.
