In context
37And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once again to Jerusalem, he said,
38If thou hast any enemy or traitor, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him well scourged, if he escape with his life: for in that place, no doubt, there is an especial power of God.
— 2 Maccabees 3:39 —
40And the things concerning Heliodorus, and the keeping of the treasury, fell out on this sort.
