1 Maccabees 12:30

30 Then Jonathan pursued them, but he did not overtake them, for they had crossed the Eleutherus river.

1 Maccabees 12:30 In-Context

28 When the enemy heard that Jonathan and his troops were prepared for battle, they were afraid and were terrified at heart; so they kindled fires in their camp and withdrew.
29 But Jonathan and his troops did not know it until morning, for they saw the fires burning.
30 Then Jonathan pursued them, but he did not overtake them, for they had crossed the Eleutherus river.
31 So Jonathan turned aside against the Arabs who are called Zabadeans, and he crushed them and plundered them.
32 Then he broke camp and went to Damascus, and marched through all that region.
