chapter 1 Zurich part A 1When Philopater had understand by those that were come again that Antiochus had taken from him such holds as he had, he raised all his army aswell foot men as horsemen, and taking with him his sister Arsinoe, he ran out even afar as the countries of Raphia, that were bordering upon him, where Antiochus host camped. And one Theodotus, thinking to bring the matter to pass by crafty trains, when he had taken the strongest men of armies, that were put unto him by Ptolomeus, in the night he gat him to Ptolomeus tent to kill him unawares, and so make an end of the battle. But Dositheus called the son of Drimilius a Jew borne, and afterwards forsaking the Law, ⟨image 128⟩and turned from his fathers ordinances, which was hired for the purpose, put in his stead in the tent an other poor man, which chanced to be slain for him. And as they fought fiercely together. But Antiochus more. Arsinoe went diligently about her men, weeping pitifully, her hear about her shoulders, and desired them, that they would help her valiantly, promising to gy• unto every of there wives and children, if the had the victory two pounds of gold. This is chanced that there enemies were over thrown, and many taken. Then when he had thus disappointed there trains, he went about the cities that were next, and thought to con fort them with words, which when he had done, he gave *gifts unto there churches, and comforted the subjects hearts. part B And when the Jews had sent the elders of there counsellors to Philopater to salute him, bearing gifts and to show there, for the things that he had done, it fortuned that he had a greater desire to go to them as soon as might be. So he came to Jerusalem and did sacrifice to the most mighty God, and when he had done, he did to the ⟨image 129⟩place as was convenient. *And after when he was come in, he wondered to see the costly work, and marvelling at the fine building of the temple, he desired to go also into the inner tabernacle that was holiest of all. But when they denied him saying it was not lawful, no not to any that were borne there, to go in, not so much as for the priests them selves save only for the chief bishop
chapter 1 Zurich part A 1WHen Philopater had vnderstande by thoos that were comen agayne that Antiochus had taken frō hym suche holdes as he had, he raysed all hys army aswell fote men as horsemen, and taking with him his sister Arsinoe, he ranne out euen affare as the countries of Raphia, that were borderynge vpon hym, where Antiochus host camped. And one Theodotus, thynkynge to brynge the matter to passe by craftye traines, when he hadde taken the strongest men of armys, that were put vnto hym by Ptolomeus, in the night he gat him to Ptolomeus tent to kyll hym vnwares, and so make an end of the battel. But Dositheus called the sonne of Drimilius a Iewe borne, and afterwardes forsakyng the Lawe, ⟨image 128⟩and tourned from hys fathers ordinaū ces, whiche was hired for the purpose, put in hys steede in the tente an other poore man, which chaunsed to be slayn for him. And as they fought fearcely together. But Antiochus moare. Arsinoe went diligently about her men, wering pitifully, her heare about her shuldars, and desyred them, that they would healpe her valiauntly, promisinge to gy• vnto euery of there wiues and children, yf the had the vyctory two poundes of golde. Thys is chaunsed that there enemies were ouer thrownen, and many taken. Then whan he hadde thus dysapointed there traines, he went about ye cities that were next, and thought to cō fort them wyth wordes, whiche when he had done, he gaue *gyftes vnto ther churches, and conforted the subiectes hartes. part B And when the Iewes had sent the elders of there counsailours to Philopater to salute hym, berynge gyftes and to shewe there, for the thyngs that he hadde done, it fortuned that he hadd a greater desyre to go to theym assone as might be. So he came to Ierusalem and dyd sacrifice to the moste myghtye God, and whē he had done, he dyd to ye ⟨image 129⟩place as was conuenient. *And after when he was come in, he wondred to see the costly worcke, and meruelynge at the fine buyldynge of the temple, he desyred to go also into the innar tabernacle that was holiest of all. But when they denyed hym sayenge it was not leafull, no not to eny that were borne there, to go in, not so much as for ye priestes them selues saue only for the cheaffe byshop*, & that but onse in the yere onlye, yet woulde he not betourned one wyth. And when they reade vnto him ye law, yet would he not cease, but said he mult nedes go in.
