In context
3Then tying back his arms and hands, they disdainfully used him with stripes;
4a herald opposite crying out, Obey the commands of the king.
— 4 Maccabees 6:5 —
6But raising his eyes on high to heaven, the old man’s flesh was stripped off by the scourges, and his blood streamed down, and his sides were pierced through.
7And falling upon the ground, from his body having no power to support the pains, he yet kept his reasoning upright and unbending.
