1 Maccabees 11:65 In-Context

63 Now when Jonathan heard that Demetrius' princes had come to Kadesh, which is in Galilee, with a great power, purposing to remove him out of the country,
64 he went to meet them and left Simon his brother in the country.
65 Then Simon encamped against Beth-zur and fought against it a long season, and shut it in.
66 But they desired to have peace with him, which he granted them, and then put them out from thence, and took the city and set a garrison in it.
67 As for Jonathan and his host, they pitched camp at the Water of Gennesaret, from whence early in the morning they got to the plain of Hazor.
