With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam , and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar , and Arioch king of Ellasar ; four kings with five.

These came up from Thermeleth, and Thelersas, Charaathalan leading them, and Allar;

And when many had been seized, a foremost man of the assembly, a Hebrew, by name Eleazar , a priest by family, by profession a lawyer, and advanced in years, and for this reason known to many of the king’s followers, was brought near to him.

And Eleazar , who was called Avaran, saw one of the beasts armed with royal breastplates, and he was higher than all the beasts, and the king seemed to be upon him;

But Eleazar , the high-minded and truly noble, as one tortured in a dream, regarded it not all.

Of Mahli came Eleazar , who had no sons.

and moreover Eleazer also: then, having read aloud the sacred book, and having given as watchword, THE HELP OF GOD, leading the first band himself, he joined battle with Nicanor.

When Eleazar had in this manner answered the exhortations of the tyrant, the spearbearers came up, and rudely haled Eleazar to the instruments of torture.

While the tyrant incited him in this manner to the unlawful eating of flesh, Eleazar begged permission to speak.

Why do you unreasonably destroy yourself, O Eleazar , with these miseries?

And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:

then sent I to Eleazar , and Ariel Iduel, and Maasmas,

And Judas was encamped at Elasa, and three thousand chosen men with him:

Eleazar , one of the principal scribes, a man already well stricken in years, and of a noble countenance, was compelled to open his mouth to eat swine’s flesh.

so, Eleazar , the descendant of Aaron , wasted away by the fire, did not give up his reasoning.

And Eleazar the priest shall take of her blood with his finger, and sprinkle of her blood directly before the tabernacle of the congregation seven times:

And Eleazar , an illustrious priest of the country, who had attained to length of days, and whose life had been adorned with virtue, caused the presbyters who were about him to cease to cry out to the holy God, and prayed thus:

O aged man of more power than tortures, elder more vigorous than fire, greatest king over the passions, Eleazar !

and were carried back by Sanabassar, together with them of the captivity, from Babylon to Jerusalem .
