The Maccabees were armed primarily with Hellenistic-style weapons, such as swords, spears, short-bows, and shields.
The Maccabees revolted against the Syrian-Greeks not to achieve political independence, but in order to be able to observe the commands of the Torah, which the Syrian-Greeks had forbidden at the instigation of the Hellenizing (irreligious) Jews.

A:There are actually four Books of Maccabees, written by different authors and over a period of centuries. 3 Maccabees and 4 Maccabees can probably be excluded because they were clearly written long after the time attributed to Jesus. 2 Maccabees was written shortly after 1 Maccabees.The Catholic Bible does include 1 and 2 Maccabees. Both were in the Septuagint scrolls and for that reason were candidates for inclusion, especially as 2 Maccabees includes awe-inspiring stories of angelic warfare as well as supporting the Catholic concept of purgatory.The Jewish academy had elected not to include either 1 Maccabees or 2 Maccabees, with the later books not yet written, and subsequent Protestant theologians were guided by the Hebrew scriptures.
