The Maccabean revolutionaries were able to force the Seleucids to relinquish their claim to control Judah. The successful revolt led to the establishment of an independent Jewish state and allowed the Jewish people to govern themselves for a time. Additionally, they rededicated the Second Temple in Jerusalem, but the main outcome of their struggle was the end of Seleucid control over the region.
