[189] ἐμπλεκόμενος γὰρ καὶ τῶν κτεινόντων ἐλλαμβανόμενος, νῦν μὲν ἐπιφέρειν
τὰ ξίφη κωλυομένων, ἐγκαρσίους δὲ πληγὰς καταφερόντων, αἴτιος ἐγένετο βαρυτέρων ἑαυτῷ συμφορῶν· διατμηθεὶς δὲ καὶ διακοπεὶς χεῖρας, βάσεις, ¹² κεφαλήν, στέρνα, πλευράς, ὡς ἱερείου τρόπον κρεουργηθῆναι, ἔκειτο, τῆς δίκης σφαγὰς ἰσαρίθμους τοῖς φόνοις τῶν ἐκνόμως ἀναιρεθέντων Ἰουδαίων ἑνὶ σώματι βουληθείσης ἐργάσασθαι.

Against Flaccus First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, volume 4. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1855.) — 189 focus

[189] for he, turning round them and clinging to his executioners, who were hindered in their aims which they took at him with their swords, and who thus struck him with oblique blows, was the cause of his own sufferings being more severe; for he was in consequence mutilated and cut about the hands, and feet, and head, and breast, and sides, so that he was mangled like a victim, and thus he fell, justice righteously inflicting on his own body wounds equal in number to the murders of the Jews whom he had unlawfully put to death.
