1 Maccabees 11:71 In-Context

69 Then the men in ambush emerged from their places and joined battle.

70 All the men with Jonathan fled; not one of them was left except Mattathias son of Absalom and Judas son of Chalphi, commanders of the forces of the army.

71 Jonathan tore his clothes, put dust on his head, and prayed.

72 Then he turned back to the battle against the enemy and routed them, and they fled.

73 When his men who were fleeing saw this, they returned to him and joined him in the pursuit as far as Kadesh, to their camp, and there they encamped.
