1 Maccabees 7:23–24
23 And Judas saw all the wrongs that Alcimus and those with him had done among the Israelites; it was more than the Gentiles had done. 24 So Judase went out into all the surrounding parts of Judea, taking vengeance on those who had deserted and preventing those in the cityf from going out into the country.
