1 Maccabees 4:5

5 So when Gorgias entered Judas' camp during the night, there was no one there. He started looking for them in the hills, because he said, "These men are running away from us."

1 Maccabees 4:5 In-Context

3 But Judas heard about it, and he and his warriors moved out to attack the king's forces in Emmaus

4 while the division was absent from the camp.

5 So when Gorgias entered Judas' camp during the night, there was no one there. He started looking for them in the hills, because he said, "These men are running away from us."

6 At daybreak, Judas appeared in the plain with three thousand men. But they didn't have armor and swords such as they would have liked.

7 They saw the Gentile camp, strongly fortified, surrounded by cavalry clearly trained in warfare.
