3 Maccabees 3:28 In-Context

26 For when all of these have been punished, we are sure that for the remaining time the government will be established for ourselves in good order and in the best state.
27 But those who shelter any of the Jews, whether old people or children or even infants, will be tortured to death with the most hateful torments, together with their families.
28 Any who are willing to give information will receive the property of those who incur the punishment, and also two thousand drachmas from the royal treasury, and will be awarded their freedom.
29 Every place detected sheltering a Jew is to be made unapproachable and burned with fire, and shall become useless for all time to any mortal creature."
30 The letter was written in the above form.
