On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

These inhuman hellish methods, which all the world profess at least to abhor, have these persecutors recourse to, to gratify their malice against the gospel of Christ, and this too under colour of zeal for Moses. Tantum religio potuit suadere malorum--Such was their dire religious zeal. See how specious the pretence was.
