2 Maccabees 10:33 In-Context

31 Twenty thousand five hundred foot soldiers and six hundred cavalry were cut down.

32 But Timothy himself fled into a fortress called Gazara, a secured area commanded by Chaereas.

33 The followers of the Maccabee eagerly attacked the area for four days.

34 Because the place was strongly fortified, those inside verbally insulted the enemy, uttering unlawful words.

35 As the fifth day began, twenty of the young men among the Maccabee's followers burned with anger because of the verbal insults, and they bravely attacked the wall. In savage fury, they cut down anyone they found.
