21But some one ran ahead and reported to John at Gazara that his father and brothers had perished, and that “he has sent men to kill you also.” 22When he heard this, he was greatly shocked; and he seized the men who came to destroy him and killed them, for he had found out that they were seeking to destroy him.
23The rest of the acts of John and his wars and the brave deeds which he did, and the building of the walls which he built, and his achievements, 24behold, they are written in the chronicles of his high priesthood, from the time that he became high priest after his father.
