1 Maccabees 2:29 Context
27And Mattathias cried throughout the citie with a loud voyce, saying, Whosoeuer is zealous of the law, and maintaineth the couenant, let him follow me. 28So he and his sonnes fled into the mountaines, and left all that euer they had in the citie. 29Then many that sought after iustice and iudgement, went downe into the wildernesse to dwell there. 30Both they and their children, and their wiues, and their cattell, because afflictions increased sore vpon them. 31Now when it was told the kings seruants, and the hoste that was at Ierusalem, in the citie of Dauid, that certaine men, who had broken the kings commandement, were gone downe into the secret places in the wildernesse.
