In context
4Any one of you may not be able to eradicate malice, but reasoning has force to work with you to prevent your yielding to malice.
5For reasoning is not an eradicator, but an antagonist of the passions.
— 4 Maccabees 3:6 —
7For after David had been attacking the Philistines the whole day, he with the soldiers of his nation slew many of them;
8then when evening came, sweating and very weary, he came to the royal tent, about which the entire host of our ancestors was encamped.
