12 Then from the fortress that Bacchides had built, the foreigners fled.

1 Maccabees 10:12 In-Context

10 Jonathan took up residence in Jerusalem and began to rebuild and restore the city.

11 He directed the workers to build the walls and encircle Mount Zion with squared stones for better reinforcement, which they did.

12 Then from the fortress that Bacchides had built, the foreigners fled.

13 All of them left their places and returned to their own lands.

14 Only in Beth-zur did some Jews remain who had neglected the Law and the commandments, because Beth-zur was a place of refuge.
