3 Maccabees

7 chapters from the Brenton Septuagint translation.

3 Maccabees has nothing to do with the Maccabees. It tells how Ptolemy IV Philopator tried to enter the temple, then to have the Jews of Egypt trampled by elephants, and how God delivered them. Orthodox Bibles include it. This text is Brenton's translation of the Septuagint.
