2 Maccabees 1:15

Listen to 2 Maccabees 1:15
15 And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he had entered with a small company into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple as soon as Antiochus had come in.

2 Maccabees 1:15 In-Context

13 For when the leader had come into Persia, and the army with him that seemed invincible, they were slain in the temple of Nanea by the deceit of Nanea's priests.
14 For Antiochus and his friends who were with him came into the place, as though he would marry her, to receive money by way of a dowry.
15 And when the priests of Nanea had set it forth, and he had entered with a small company into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple as soon as Antiochus had come in.
16 And, opening a secret door in the roof, they threw stones like thunderbolts and struck down the captain, hewed them in pieces, smote off their heads and cast them to those who were outside.
17 Blessed be our God in all things, who hath delivered up the ungodly!
