	Battle of Emmaus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of Emmaus took place in 166 BCE between the Hasmonean rebels of Judea, led by Judas Maccabeus and the third expedition of Hellenist forces sent by Antiochus IV Epiphanes, this time led by Lysias and his general, Gorgias.
		Gorgias established his base camp at the town of Emmaus, along the western border of Judea, while Judas Maccabeus' camp was located in the town of Mitzpah, north of Jerusalem.
		In the ensuing battle, Judas Maccabeus and his men succeeded in repelling Gorgias and chasing his army out Judea and down to the Coastal Plain in what was considered one of his most important victories in the war for Judea's independence.

		The campaign began in 166 BC; the Syrians were defeated at Emmaus (1 Macc 3:57 ff.), while Gorgias at a later stage gained a victory at Jamnia over a body of Jews who disobeyed Judas (1 Macc 5:58).
		The battle of Emmaus is not mentioned, but "the thrice-accursed Nicanor," having in overweening pride invited a thousand slavedealers to accompany him to buy the Jewish captives, was humiliated, and his host was destroyed, he himself escaping "like a fugitive slave" to Antioch (2 Macc 8:34 f.).
		Then followed the battle of Capharsalama ("village of peace"), in which the Syrians were defeated, though Josephus (Ant., XII, x, 5) says Judas was defeated.

		Once again I had that strange feeling that had come over me on the road to Emmaus, that Yeshua was standing behind me, ready to blap his hand on my shoulder in a friendly greeting.

		Organizing their own world tour was a good way for the band to gain my attention and, having managed to catch a live show at Greenbelt, I managed to track down a copy of this live recording to review.
		One particularly strong track is the simple "Battle by Battle" which is sung acappella and is a good showcase for the band's use of vocal harmonies, and especially the strong voice of lead singer Joanne.
		Mesmerizing would be a good word to describe this album, Emmaus is a creative and energetic band who has a huge amount of potential.

		Before each battle, Judah aroused his soldiers with a short but inspiring message, like his talk before the battle of Emmaus, where, commanding a force of three thousand untrained Jewish fighters without suitable weapons, he defeated five thousand trained, well-armed Greek soldiers:
