The Hasideans joined the Maccabean revolt against the Hellenistic Seleucids... and they later withdrew from the Maccabean cause as soon as they had regained their religious freedom. Indeed, they fell into disfavour with the Hasmonean rulers." ("Hasidean, hebreo Ḥasid... ("Piadoso")... miembro de una secta judía precristiana... Los Hasideans se unieron a la revuelta macabea contra los seléucidas helenísticos... y más tarde se retiraron de la causa macabea tan pronto como recuperaron su libertad religiosa. De hecho, cayeron en desgracia con los gobernantes asmoneos.")
