1 Maccabees 9:51

⁴⁹So there were slain of Bacchides’ side that day about a thousand men.

⁵⁰Afterward returned Bacchides to Jerusalem, and repaired the strong cities in Judea; the fort in Jericho, and Emmaus, and Beth-horon, and Bethel, and Timnath, Pharathon, and Tephon, these did he strengthen with high walls, with gates, and with bars.

— 1 Maccabees 9:51 —

⁵²He fortified also the city Beth-zur, and Gazara, and the tower, and put forces in them, and provision of victuals.

⁵³Besides, he took the chief men’s sons in the country for hostages, and put them into the tower at Jerusalem to be kept.
