With regard to what Lysias the kinsman of the king has granted you, we also give consent: The Romans inform the Jews that they have no objection to the peace terms worked out between Judas and Lysias. For kinsman of the king, see the comments on verse 1. Good News Bible provides a good model for this verse.
