1 Maccabees 5:5

5 He shut them up therefore in the towers, and encamped against them, and destroyed them utterly, and burned the towers of that place with fire, and all who were therein.

1 Maccabees 5:5 In-Context

3 Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea at Akrabattene, because they besieged Israel; and he gave them a great overthrow, and abated their courage, and took their spoils.

4 Also he remembered the injury of the children of Baean, who had been a snare and an offense unto the people, in that they lay in wait for them on the ways.

5 He shut them up therefore in the towers, and encamped against them, and destroyed them utterly, and burned the towers of that place with fire, and all who were therein.

6 Afterward he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power and many people, with Timothy their captain.

7 So he fought many battles with them, till at length they were discomfited before him; and he smote them.
