However, Herod did not lie at rest, but seized upon Idumea, and kept it,
with two thousand footmen, and four hundred horsemen; and this he did by
sending his brother Joseph thither, that no innovation might be made by

to take the remaining parts of Galilee, and to drive away the garrisons
placed there by Antigonus.
