I Maccabees 5:66

And he removed his camp to go into the land of the aliens, and he went through Samaria.

Aliens; Philistines, ver. 68. --- Samaria. This seems too remote. Some substitute Saraia; (Jos.[Josue?] 15:35.) others Maresa, (2 Machabees 12:35.) Marissa, (Jos.[Josephus?]) the same as Ressa, Numbers 33:21.
