Arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, i.e. Antiochus shall come with armed power to assist the deserters, and force the faithful Jews by his garrisons. Shall take away the daily sacrifice; for he polluted the sanctuary by taking away the holy vessels, and forbidding the public worship; but he added a third pollution, by setting up in the temple the abomination of desolation, i.e. the abominable idol of Jupiter Olympius, with many more, /APC 1Ma 1:21-23,41, to the end; /APC 2Mac v. 24.
