1 Maccabees 5:32

Listen to 1 Maccabees 5:32

1 Maccabees 5:32 In-Context

30 At dawn Judas and his men saw a vast army attacking the fortress; they were bringing up ladders, siege platforms, and battering rams in an effort to capture it.
31 When Judas heard the noise, the shouts, and the sound of trumpets coming from the city, he realized that the battle had begun,
32 so he said to his men, "Fight today for our fellow Jews!"
33 He ordered his men to march in three columns and attack the enemy from the rear. As they moved forward, they blew trumpets and shouted prayers.
34 When the army under Timothy's command saw that it was Judas Maccabeus, the soldiers turned and fled. Judas crushed them and killed about 8,000 men that day.
