1 Maccabees 11:46 In-Context

44 Upon this Jonathan sent him three thousand strong men unto Antioch; and when they came to the king, the king was very glad of their coming.

45 However those who were of the city gathered themselves together into the midst of the city, to the number of a hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have slain the king.

46 Therefore the king fled into the court, but they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.

47 Then the king called to the Jews for help, who came unto him all at once and, dispersing themselves through the city, slew that day in the city up to the number of a hundred thousand.

48 Also they set fire to the city and got many spoils that day, and delivered the king.
