Good News Translation

³³ who met them with 3,000 infantry and 400 cavalry. ³⁴ In the battle that followed, a few Jews were killed. ³⁵ Then a Jew from the city of Tob,^[a] a powerful cavalry soldier by the name of Dositheus, grabbed Gorgias by his cloak and started dragging him away by brute force, intending to take the worthless man alive. But suddenly one from the Thracian cavalry rushed at Dositheus and chopped off his arm, allowing Gorgias to escape to the city of Marisa.
