1 Maccabees 7:23

23 Now when Judas saw all the mischief that Alcimus and his company had done among the Israelites, even above the heathen,

1 Maccabees 7:23 In-Context

21 But Alcimus labored to defend his high priesthood.
22 And unto him resorted all such as troubled the people who, after they had gotten the land of Judah into their power, did much harm in Israel.
23 Now when Judas saw all the mischief that Alcimus and his company had done among the Israelites, even above the heathen,
24 he went out into all the borders of Judea round about and took vengeance on those who had revolted from him, so that they no more dared go forth into the country.
25 On the other side, when Alcimus saw that Judas and his company had gotten the upper hand, and knew that he was not able to abide their force, he went again to the king and said all the worst against them that he could.
