Septuagint, Ecclesiasticus (Siracides), 35-36


nanHe who keeps the law makes many offerings;he who heeds the commandments sacrifices a peace offering., He who returns a kindness offers fine flour,and he who gives alms sacrifices a thank offering., To keep from wickedness is pleasing to the Lord,and to forsake unrighteousness is atonement., Do not appear before the Lord empty-handed,, for all these things are to be done because of the commandment., The offering of a righteous man anoints the altar,and its pleasing odor rises before the Most High., The sacrifice of a righteous man is acceptable,and the memory of it will not be forgotten., Glorify the Lord generously,and do not stint the first fruits of your hands., With every gift show a cheerful face,and dedicate your tithe with gladness., Give to the Most High as he has given,and as generously as your hand has found., For the Lord is the one who repays,and he will repay you sevenfold., Do not offer him a bribe, for he will not accept it;and do not trust to an unrighteous sacrifice;for the Lord is the judge,and with him is no partiality., He will not show partiality in the case of a poor man;and he will listen to the prayer of one who is wronged., He will not ignore the supplication of the fatherless,nor the widow when she pours out her story., Do not the tears of the widow run down her cheek as she cries out against him who has caused them to fall?, He whose service is pleasing to the Lord will be accepted,and his prayer will reach to the clouds., The prayer of the humble pierces the clouds,and he will not be consoled until it reaches the Lord;he will not desist until the Most High visits him,and does justice for the righteous, and executes judgment., And the Lord will not delay,neither will he be patient with them,till he crushes the loins of the unmerciful and repays vengeance on the nations;till he takes away the multitude of the insolent,and breaks the scepters of the unrighteous;, till he repays the man according to his deeds,and the works of men according to their devices;till he judges the case of his people and makes them rejoice in his mercy., Mercy is as welcome when he afflicts them as clouds of rain in the time of drought.


nanHave mercy upon us, O Lord, the God of all, and look upon us,, and cause the fear of thee to fall upon all the nations., Lift up thy hand against foreign nations and let them see thy might., As in us thou hast been sanctified before them,so in them be thou magnified before us;, and let them know thee, as we have known that there is not God but thee, O Lord., Show signs anew, and work further wonders;make thy hand and thy right arm glorious., Rouse thy anger and pour out thy wrath;destroy the adversary and wipe out the enemy., Hasten the day, and remember the appointed time,and let people recount thy mighty deeds., Let him who survives be consumed in the fiery wrath,and may those who harm thy people meet destruction., Crush the heads of the rulers of the enemy,who say, "There is no one but ourselves.", Gather all the tribes of Jacob,and give them their inheritance, as at the beginning., Have mercy, O Lord, upon the people called by thy name,upon Israel, whom thou hast likened to a first-born son., Have pity on the city of thy sanctuary,Jerusalem, the place of thy rest., Fill Zion with the celebration of thy wondrous deeds,and thy temple with thy glory., Bear witness to those whom thou didst create in the beginning,and fulfil the prophecies spoken in thy name., Reward those who wait for thee,and let thy prophets be found trustworthy., Hearken, O Lord, to the prayer of thy servants,according to the blessing of Aaron for thy people,and all who are on the earth will know that thou art the Lord, the God of the ages., The stomach will take any food,yet one food is better than another., As the palate tastes the kinds of game,so an intelligent mind detects false words., A perverse mind will cause grief,but a man of experience will pay him back., A woman will accept any man,but one daughter is better than another., A womans beauty gladdens the countenance,and surpasses every human desire., If kindness and humility mark her speech,her husband is not like other men., He who acquires a wife gets his best possession,a helper fit for him and a pillar of support., Where there is no fence, the property will be plundered;and where there is no wife, a man will wander about and sigh., For who will trust a nimble robber that skips from city to city?So who will trust a man that has no home,and lodges wherever night finds him?

10. Josephus Flavius, Jewish Antiquities, 12.3-12.10 (1st cent. CE - 1st cent. CE)

12.3. And while these princes ambitiously strove one against another, every one for his own principality, it came to pass that there were continual wars, and those lasting wars too; and the cities were sufferers, and lost a great many of their inhabitants in these times of distress, insomuch that all Syria, by the means of Ptolemy the son of Lagus, underwent the reverse of that denomination of Savior, which he then had. 12.3. Out of regard therefore to justice, and out of pity to those that have been tyrannized over, contrary to equity, I enjoin those that have such Jews in their service to set them at liberty, upon the receipt of the before-mentioned sum; and that no one use any deceit about them, but obey what is here commanded. 12.3. And when Judas saw their camp, and how numerous their enemies were, he persuaded his own soldiers to be of good courage, and exhorted them to place their hopes of victory in God, and to make supplication to him, according to the custom of their country, clothed in sackcloth; and to show what was their usual habit of supplication in the greatest dangers, and thereby to prevail with God to grant you the victory over your enemies. 12.4. He also seized upon Jerusalem, and for that end made use of deceit and treachery; for as he came into the city on a Sabbath day, as if he would offer sacrifices he, without any trouble, gained the city, while the Jews did not oppose him, for they did not suspect him to be their enemy; and he gained it thus, because they were free from suspicion of him, and because on that day they were at rest and quietness; and when he had gained it, he ruled over it in a cruel manner. 12.4. 5. When this epistle was sent to the king, he commanded that an epistle should be drawn up for Eleazar, the Jewish high priest, concerning these matters; and that they should inform him of the release of the Jews that had been in slavery among them. He also sent fifty talents of gold for the making of large basons, and vials, and cups, and an immense quantity of precious stones. 12.4. But when Judas saw that Alcimus was already become great, and had destroyed many of the good and holy men of the country, he also went all over the country, and destroyed those that were of the other party. But when Alcimus saw that he was not able to oppose Judas, nor was equal to him in strength, he resolved to apply himself to king Demetrius for his assistance; 12.5. Nay, Agatharchides of Cnidus, who wrote the acts of Alexander’s successors, reproaches us with superstition, as if we, by it, had lost our liberty; where he says thus: 12.5. And I have sent to thee Andreas, the captain of my guard, and Aristeus, men whom I have in very great esteem; by whom I have sent those first-fruits which I have dedicated to the temple, and to the sacrifices, and to other uses, to the value of a hundred talents. And if thou wilt send to us, to let us know what thou wouldst have further, thou wilt do a thing acceptable to me.” 12.6. “There is a nation called the nation of the Jews, who inhabit a city strong and great, named Jerusalem. These men took no care, but let it come into the hands of Ptolemy, as not willing to take arms, and thereby they submitted to be under a hard master, by reason of their unseasonable superstition.” 12.6. 8. And first I will describe what belongs to the table. It was indeed in the king’s mind to make this table vastly large in its dimensions; but then he gave orders that they should learn what was the magnitude of the table which was already at Jerusalem, and how large it was, and whether there was a possibility of making one larger than it. 12.7. This is what Agatharchides relates of our nation. But when Ptolemy had taken a great many captives, both from the mountainous parts of Judea, and from the places about Jerusalem and Samaria, and the places near Mount Gerizzim, he led them all into Egypt, and settled them there. 12.7. for there was made a plate of gold four fingers broad, through the entire breadth of the table, into which they inserted the feet, and then fastened them to the table by buttons and button-holes, at the place where the crown was situate, that so on what side soever of the table one should stand, it might exhibit the very same view of the exquisite workmanship, and of the vast expenses bestowed upon it: 12.8. And as he knew that the people of Jerusalem were most faithful in the observation of oaths and covets; and this from the answer they made to Alexander, when he sent an embassage to them, after he had beaten Darius in battle; so he distributed many of them into garrisons, and at Alexandria gave them equal privileges of citizens with the Macedonians themselves; and required of them to take their oaths, that they would keep their fidelity to the posterity of those who committed these places to their care. 12.8. while small shields, made of stones, beautiful in their kind, and of four fingers’ depth, filled up the middle parts. About the top of the basin were wreathed the leaves of lilies, and of the convolvulus, and the tendrils of vines in a circular manner. 12.9. Nay, there were not a few other Jews who, of their own accord, went into Egypt, as invited by the goodness of the soil, and by the liberality of Ptolemy. 12.9. and when they had taken off the covers wherein they were wrapt up, they showed him the membranes. So the king stood admiring the thinness of those membranes, and the exactness of the junctures, which could not be perceived; (so exactly were they connected one with another;) and this he did for a considerable time. He then said that he returned them thanks for coming to him, and still greater thanks to him that sent them; and, above all, to that God whose laws they appeared to be.
11. Mishnah, Yadayim, 3.5 (1st cent. CE - 3rd cent. CE)

3.5. A scroll on which the writing has become erased and eighty-five letters remain, as many as are in the section beginning, \"And it came to pass when the ark set forward\" (Numbers 11:35-36) defiles the hands. A single sheet on which there are written eighty-five letters, as many as are in the section beginning, \"And it came to pass when the ark set forward\", defiles the hands. All the Holy Scriptures defile the hands. The Song of Songs and Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) defile the hands. Rabbi Judah says: the Song of Songs defiles the hands, but there is a dispute about Kohelet. Rabbi Yose says: Kohelet does not defile the hands, but there is a dispute about the Song of Songs. Rabbi Shimon says: [the ruling about] Kohelet is one of the leniencies of Bet Shammai and one of the stringencies of Bet Hillel. Rabbi Shimon ben Azzai said: I have received a tradition from the seventy-two elders on the day when they appointed Rabbi Elazar ben Azariah head of the academy that the Song of Songs and Kohelet defile the hands. Rabbi Akiba said: Far be it! No man in Israel disputed that the Song of Songs [saying] that it does not defile the hands. For the whole world is not as worthy as the day on which the Song of Songs was given to Israel; for all the writings are holy but the Song of Songs is the holy of holies. If they had a dispute, they had a dispute only about Kohelet. Rabbi Yoha ben Joshua the son of the father-in-law of Rabbi Akiva said in accordance with the words of Ben Azzai: so they disputed and so they reached a decision."
