[86] 11 Καὶ τί ταῦτα μηκύνω; δευτέρα γὰρ ἐπινοεῖται πόρθησις, βουλομένου καὶ τὸ στρατευόμενον πλῆθος ἡμῖν ἐπιτειχίσαι ξένου συκοφαντήματος
εὑρέσει. τὸ δὲ συκοφάντημα ἦν, ὡς τῶν Ἰουδαίων πανοπλίας ἐν ταῖς οἰκίαις ἐχόντων. μεταπεμψάμενος οὖν ἑκατόνταρχον ᾧ μάλιστ’ ¹ ἐπίστευε, Κάστον ὄνομα, κελεύει παραλαβόντα τῆς ὑπηκόου τάξεως ἑαυτῷ τοὺς εὐτολμοτάτους στρατιώτας ἐπισπεύδειν καὶ ἄνευ προρρήσεως ἐπεισιόντα ταῖς τῶν Ἰουδαίων οἰκίαις ἐρευνᾶν, μή τις ὅπλων ἐναπόκειται παρασκευή. p. 530 M. καὶ ὁ μὲν συντείνας ἔθει τὸ προσταχθὲν ἐργασόμενος.

Now the information which was laid against the nation was, that the Jews had entire suits of armour in their houses; therefore, having sent for a centurion, in whom he placed the greatest confidence, by name Castor, he ordered him to take with him the boldest soldier of his own band, to go with haste, and, without saying a word to any one, to enter the houses of the Jews, and to search them, and see whether there was any store of arms laid up in them;
