Nicanor in Judea
26
Then the king sent for Nicanor, one of his honored princes who hated and despised Israel, and the king commanded him to destroy the people.
27
So Nicanor went to Jerusalem with a large force. He deceitfully sent a peaceful message to Judas and his brothers:
28
"Let there be no fighting between you and me. I'll come with a few men to see you personally in peace."
29
So he came to Judas, and they greeted each other peaceably. But the enemy was preparing to kidnap Judas.
30
Judas found out that Nicanor had come to him with treacherous intentions. He was afraid of him and wouldn't meet with Nicanor again.
31
When Nicanor learned that his plan had been discovered, he went out to meet Judas in battle near Caphar-salama.
32
About five hundred of Nicanor's soldiers died. The rest fled into David's City.
