Dissension

Josephus, Jewish Wars 4.132 (tr. H. St. J. Thackeray):
Beginning in the home this party rivalry first attacked those who had long been bosom friends; then the nearest relations severed their connexions and joining those who shared their respective views ranged themselves henceforth in opposite camps.

καὶ πρῶτον μὲν ἐν οἰκίαις ἥπτετο τῶν ὁμονοούντων πάλαι τὸ φιλόνεικον, ἔπειτα ἀφηνιάζοντες ἀλλήλων οἱ φίλτατοι καὶ συνιών ἕκαστος πρὸς τοὺς τὰ αὐτὰ προαιρουμένους ἤδη κατὰ ἤδη κατὰ πλῆθος ἀντετάσσοντο.
