50 and they attacked Ephron all day and night. When they broke through the walls,

52 Judas crossed the Jordan River and came to the great valley near the town of Beth-Shan.
53 From there, he led the people to Judea, encouraging and helping everyone, especially those who were dragging behind.

55-56 Joseph and Azariah were in command of the Jewish forces in Judea, when they heard about the victories of Judas and Jonathan in Gilead and about Simon's success in attacking the town of Ptolemais in Galilee.
