2 Maccabees 12:8 In-Context

6 He came against those murderers of his brethren, and set the haven on fire in the night, burnt the boats, and slew with the sword them that escaped from the fire.
7 And when he had done these things in this manner, he departed as if he would return again, and root out all the Joppites.
8 But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,
9 He came upon the Jamnites also by night, end set the haven on fire with the ships, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem two hundred and forty furlongs off.
10 And when they were now gone from thence nine furlongs, and were marching towards Timotheus, five thousand footmen and Ave hundred horsemen of the Arabians set upon them.
