2 Maccabees 3:23 Context

²¹Then it would haue pitied a man to see the falling downe of the multitude of all sorts, and the feare of the hie Priest, being in such an agony. ²²They then called vpon the Almightie Lord, to keepe the things committed of trust, safe and sure, for those that had committed them. ²³Neuerthelesse Heliodorus executed that which was decreed. ²⁴Now as hee was there present himselfe with his guard about the treasurie, the Lord of spirits, & the Prince of all power caused a great apparition, so that all that presumed to come in with him, were astonished at the power of God, and fainted, and were sore afraid. ²⁵For there appeared vnto them a horse, with a terrible rider vpon him, and adorned with a very faire couering, and he ranne fiercely, and smote at Heliodorus with his forefeet, and it seemed that hee that sate vpon the horse, had complete harnesse of golde.
