2 Maccabees 5:12 In-Context

10 Jason had killed many people and left their bodies unburied, but now his own death was unmourned. He was not given a funeral or even buried with his ancestors.

11 When the news of what had happened in Jerusalem reached Antiochus, he thought the whole country of Judea was in revolt, and he became as furious as a wild animal. So he left Egypt and took Jerusalem by storm,

12 giving his men orders to cut down without mercy everyone they met and to slaughter anyone they found hiding in the houses.

13 They murdered everyone - men and women, boys and girls; even babies were butchered.

14 Three days later Jerusalem had lost 80,000 people: 40,000 killed in the attack and at least that many taken away to be sold as slaves.
