1 Maccabees 16:8 In-Context

6 Then John and his army lined up against them. He saw that his soldiers were afraid to cross the stream, so he crossed it first. When his troops saw his action, they crossed over after him.

7 Then he divided up the army, placing the cavalry in the middle of the infantry, because the enemy had a large number of cavalry.

8 They sounded the trumpets and decisively defeated Cendebeus and his army. Many of them were killed, and the rest headed into the fortress.

9 During the battle, John's brother Judas was wounded, but John pursued them until Cendebeus reached Kedron, which he had built.

10 Some also fled into the towers that were in the fields of Azotus. John burned them down, killing about two thousand. Then he safely returned to Judea.
