all the costs belonging to the service of the sacrifices.

holiness of the place, and to the majesty and
inviolable sanctity of the temple, honoured over
all the world.

all, holding their hands toward heaven, made
supplication.
Then it would have
pitied a man to see the falling down of the multitude of
all sorts, and the fear of the high priest being in such an
agony.
Now as he was there present himself with his guard about the treasury, the Lord of spirits, and the Prince of
all power, caused a great
apparition, so that
all that presumed to come in with him were

despising the temple, and neglecting the sacrifices,

allowance in the place of exercise, after the game of
Discus called them forth;

all this he obtained not the principality, but at the last received shame for the reward of his treason, and fled again into the country of the
Ammonites.
In the end therefore he had an unhappy return, being accused before Aretas the king of the Arabians,
fleeing from city to city, pursued of
all men,
hated as a
forsaker of the laws, and being had in
abomination as an open enemy of his country and countrymen, he was cast out into Egypt.
And he that had cast out many unburied had none to
mourn for him, nor any solemn funerals at
all, nor
sepulchre with his fathers.
Yet was he not content with this, but presumed to go into the most holy temple of
all the world;
Menelaus, that
traitor to the laws, and to his own country, being his guide:
And therefore the place itself, that was
partaker with them of the
adversity that happened to the nation, did afterward communicate in the benefits sent from the Lord: and as it was
forsaken in the wrath of the
Almighty, so again, the great Lord being
reconciled, it was set up with
all glory.

detestable ringleader Apollonius with an army of two and twenty thousand, commanding him to
slay all those that were in their best age, and to sell the women and the younger sort:

celebrating of the sabbath, and running through the city with weapons
slew great multitudes.
Neither was it lawful for a man to keep sabbath days or ancient fasts, or to
profess himself at
all to be a
Jew.
And others, that had run together into caves near by, to keep the sabbath day secretly, being discovered by Philip, were all burnt together, because they made a conscience to help themselves for the honour of the most sacred day.
And thus this man died, leaving his death for an example of a noble courage, and a
memorial of virtue, not only unto young men, but unto
all his nation.
Now when he was thus
maimed in
all his members, he commanded him being yet alive to be brought to the fire, and to be
fried in the pan: and as the vapour of the pan was for a good space
dispersed, they
exhorted one another with the mother to die
manfully, saying thus,
But the mother was marvellous above all, and worthy of honourable memory: for when she saw her seven sons slain within the space of one day, she bare it with a good courage, because of the hope that she had in the Lord.

Creator of the world, who formed the generation of man, and found out the beginning of
all things, will also of his own mercy give you breath and life again, as ye now regard not your own
selves for his laws’ sake.

beseech thee, my son, look upon the heaven and the earth, and
all that is therein, and consider that God made them of things that were not; and so was mankind made likewise.
And thou, that hast been the author of all mischief against the Hebrews, shalt not escape the hands of God.
But thou, O godless man, and of
all other most wicked, be not lifted up without a cause, nor
puffed up with uncertain hopes, lifting up thy hand against the servants of God:
For thou hast not yet escaped the judgment of
Almighty God, who
seeth all things.
Than the king’ being in a
rage, handed him worse than
all the rest, and took it
grievously that he was
mocked.

And they called upon the Lord, that he would look upon the people that was
trodden down of
all; and also
pity the temple
profaned of ungodly men;
Then
forthwith choosing Nicanor the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, he sent him with no fewer than twenty thousand of
all nations under him, to root out the whole generation of the Jews; and with him he joined also
Gorgias a captain, who in matters of war had great experience.
Others sold
all that they had left, and
withal besought the Lord to deliver them, sold by the wicked Nicanor before they met together:
For they, said he, trust in their weapons and boldness; but our confidence is in the
Almighty who at a
beck can cast down both them that come against us, and also
all the world.

Galatians, how they came but eight thousand in
all to the business, with four thousand Macedonians, and that the Macedonians being
perplexed, the eight thousand destroyed an hundred and twenty thousand because of the help that they had from heaven, and so received a great
booty.
And by the help of the
Almighty they
slew above nine thousand of their enemies, and wounded and
maimed the most part of Nicanor’s host, and so put
all to flight;
And when they had gathered their armour together, they laid them up
all carefully in convenient places, and the
remnant of the spoils they brought to Jerusalem.
Howbeit he nothing at
all ceased from his
bragging, but still was filled with pride, breathing out fire in his
rage against the Jews, and commanding to
haste the journey: but it came to pass that he fell down from his
chariot, carried violently; so that having a
sore fall,
all the members of his body were much pained.
And thus he that a little
afore thought he might command the waves of the sea, (so proud was he beyond the condition of man) and
weigh the high mountains in a balance, was now cast on the ground, and carried in an
horselitter,
shewing forth unto
all the manifest power of God.
So that the worms rose up out of the body of this wicked man, and whiles he lived in sorrow and pain, his flesh fell away, and the
filthiness of his smell was
noisome to
all his army.
And as touching the Jews, whom he had judged not worthy so much as to be buried, but to be cast out with their children to be
devoured of the fowls and wild beasts, he would make them
all equals to the citizens of Athens:
And the holy temple, which before he had
spoiled, he would
garnish with goodly gifts, and restore
all the holy vessels with many more, and out of his own revenue
defray the charges belonging to the sacrifices:
Yea, and that also he would become a
Jew himself, and go through
all the world that was inhabited, and declare the power of God.
But for
all this his pains would not cease: for the just judgment of God was come upon him: therefore
despairing of his health, he wrote unto the Jews the letter underwritten, containing the form of a
supplication, after this manner:
As for me, I was weak, or else I would have remembered kindly your honour and good will returning out of Persia, and being taken with a
grievous disease, I thought it necessary to care for the common safety of
all:

assaulting them strongly, they won the holds, and kept off
all that fought upon the wall, and
slew all that fell into their hands, and killed no fewer than twenty thousand.
And because certain, who were no less than nine thousand, were fled together into two very strong castles, having
all manner of things convenient to
sustain the siege,
And having good success with his weapons in
all things he took in hand, he
slew in the two holds more than twenty thousand.
Nevertheless upon the fifth day early twenty young men of Maccabeus’ company, inflamed with anger because of the blasphemies,
assaulted the wall manly, and with a fierce courage killed
all that they met
withal.
And when he had gathered about
fourscore thousand with
all the
horsemen, he came against the Jews, thinking to make the city an
habitation of the Gentiles,
Now when they that were with Maccabeus heard that he besieged the holds, they and
all the people with
lamentation and tears
besought the Lord that he would send a good angel to deliver Israel.
Then Maccabeus himself first of
all took weapons,
exhorting the other that they would
jeopard themselves together with him to help their brethren: so they went forth together with a willing mind.
Then they praised the
merciful God
all together, and took heart,
insomuch that they were ready not only to fight with men, but with most cruel beasts, and to
pierce through walls of iron.
And giving a charge upon their enemies like lions, they
slew eleven thousand
footmen, and sixteen hundred
horsemen, and put
all the other to flight.

all reasonable conditions, and promised that he would
persuade the king that he must needs be a friend unto them.

all that
Lysias desired, being careful of the common good; and
whatsoever Maccabeus wrote unto
Lysias concerning the Jews, the king granted it.

all them of the city of

Timotheus had knowledge of
Judas’ coming, he sent the women and children and the other
baggage unto a fortress called Carnion: for the town was hard to
besiege, and uneasy to come unto, by reason of the straitness of
all the places.
But when
Judas his first band came in sight, the enemies, being
smitten with fear and terror through the appearing of him who
seeth all things, fled
amain, one running into this way, another that way, so as that they were often
hurt of their own men, and wounded with the points of their own swords.
All men therefore praising the Lord, the righteous Judge, who had opened the things that were
hid,
But the King of kings moved
Antiochus’ mind against this wicked
wretch, and
Lysias informed the king that this man was the cause of
all mischief, so that the king commanded to bring him unto
Berea, and to put him to death, as the manner is in that place.
So when he had committed
all to the
Creator of the world, and
exhorted his soldiers to fight
manfully, even unto death, for the laws, the temple, the city, the country, and the
commonwealth, he camped by Modin:
And having given the
watchword to them that were about him, Victory is of God; with the most
valiant and choice young men he went in into the king’s tent by night, and
slew in the camp about four thousand men, and the chiefest of the elephants, with
all that were upon him.

desperately bent, confounded, intreated the Jews, submitted himself, and
sware to
all equal conditions, agreed with them, and offered sacrifice, honoured the temple, and dealt kindly with the place,
First,
verily for the
unfeigned care I have of things pertaining to the king; and secondly, even for that I intend the good of mine own countrymen: for
all our nation is in no small misery through the
unadvised dealing of them aforersaid.
Wherefore, O king, seeing knowest
all these things, be careful for the country, and our nation, which is pressed on every side, according to the
clemency that thou readily shewest unto
all.
So when they had taken long
advisement thereupon, and the captain had made the multitude acquainted
therewith, and it appeared that they were
all of one mind, they consented to the covenants,
Then the king being in a
rage, and
provoked with the accusations of the most wicked man, wrote to Nicanor,
signifying that he was much displeased with the covenants, and commanding him that he should send Maccabeus prisoner in
all haste unto Antioch.
Thou, O Lord of
all things, who hast need of nothing,
wast pleased that the temple of thine
habitation should be among us:
Therefore now, O holy Lord of
all holiness, keep this house ever
undefiled, which lately was
cleansed, and stop every unrighteous mouth.
For in the former times, when they mingled not themselves with the Gentiles, he had been accused of
Judaism, and did boldly
jeopard his body and life with
all vehemency for the religion of the Jews.
Nevertheless the Jews that were compelled to go with him said, O destroy not so cruelly and barbarously, but give honour to that day, which he, that
seeth all things, hath honoured with
holiness above
all other days.
And this was his vision: That Onias, who had been high priest, a
virtuous and a good man,
reverend in conversation, gentle in condition, well spoken also, and exercised from a child in
all points of virtue, holding up his hands prayed for the whole body of the Jews.
And now, when as
all looked what should be the trial, and the enemies were already come near, and the army was set in
array, and the beasts conveniently placed, and the
horsemen set in wings,
And
Judas, who was ever the chief defender of the citizens both in body and mind, and who continued his love toward his countrymen
all his life, commanded to strike off Nicanor’s head, and his hand with his shoulder, and bring them to Jerusalem.
He
hanged also Nicanor’s head upon the tower, an evident and manifest sign unto
all of the help of the Lord.
And they ordained
all with a common decree in no case to let that day pass without
solemnity, but to
celebrate the
thirtieth day of the
twelfth month, which in the
Syrian tongue is called
Adar, the day before Mardocheus’ day.
