[277]

Ἐπεὶ δὲ Κάσσιος ἐκ τῆς Ἰουδαίας ἀπῆρεν, Μάλιχος ἐπεβούλευσεν Ἀντιπάτρῳ τὴν τούτου τελευτὴν ἀσφάλειαν Ὑρκανοῦ τῆς ἀρχῆς εἶναι νομίζων. οὐ μὴν ἔλαθεν τὸν Ἀντίπατρον ταῦτα φρονῶν, ἀλλ᾽ αἰσθόμενος γὰρ ἐκεῖνος ἐχώρει πέραν Ἰορδάνου καὶ στρατὸν Ἀράβιον ἅμα καὶ ἐγχώριον συνήθροιζεν. [278] δεινὸς δὲ ὢν ὁ Μάλιχος ἠρνεῖτο μὲν τὴν ἐπιβουλήν, ἀπολογούμενος δὲ μεθ᾽ ὅρκων αὐτῷ τε καὶ τοῖς παισίν, καὶ ὡς Φασαήλου μὲν Ἱεροσόλυμα φρουροῦντος, Ἡρώδου δὲ ἔχοντος τὴν φυλακὴν τῶν ὅπλων οὐδ᾽ ἂν εἰς νοῦν ἐβάλετο τοιοῦτον οὐδὲν ὁρῶν τὴν ἀπορίαν, καταλλάσσεται πρὸς τὸν Ἀντίπατρον, [279] καὶ συνέβησαν Μούρκου κατὰ Συρίαν στρατηγοῦντος, ὃς αἰσθόμενος νεωτεροποιοῦντα τὰ κατὰ τὴν Ἰουδαίαν τὸν Μάλιχον ἦλθε μὲν ὡς παρὰ μικρὸν αὐτὸν ἀνελεῖν, Ἀντιπάτρου δὲ παρακαλέσαντος περιέσωσεν.
