A64619Pilate answered, Am I a Jew?
A64619Pilate said unto them the third time, But what evil hath he done?
A64619Pilate therefore spake unto them again, being willing to release Jesus, which of the twain will you that I release unto you?
A64619Plutarch writes in the life of Cicero, where also he relates the jest which Cicero put upon Caecilius for being a Jew, Quid Judaeo cum verre?

A64619Then a Pharisee, a Lawyer, tempteth him, asking him which is the great commandement in the law?
A64619Then said one unto him, Are there few that shall be saved?
A64619There come to him the Pharisees, tempting him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
A64619This sin why did I, wretch, partake?
A64619To whom he saith, Who made me a Judge?
A64619What injury( said he) did I ever to you, that you should wish me a worse return home, than I had going into banishment?

A64619What, Caesar when, like a sea- fight by land, Made th''Persian and Cecropian beaks the sand To ride?
A64619What, to excell Parmensis Cassius, write?
A64619What?
A64619When Onomarchus the Captain of the watch asked Antigonus, how he would have Eumenes to be kept?
A64619When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid, and went again into the judgement- hall, and saith to Jesus, Whence art thou?
A64619Who would have thought so great a fleet had held All fleeing men?

A64619Why saw I ought?
A64619Why seek ye the living among the dead?
A64619and how oft did the night come upon him, when he began in the morning?
A64619and why do you take this unlucky bird into your hands?
A64619because he more contentedly suffered himself to be pluckt from his Country, than to part with his banishment?
A64619but Jesus gave him no answer; then said Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me?
A64619but Jesus knowing all things that should come unto ● ● m, went out unto them, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

A09833And if any one kils a Traytor to his Country, or a Tyrant, shall he not be commended by all the World, held deare and honoured?
A09833And if any one strikes a free man to punish and amend him, shall wee not hold him an honest man and praise worthy?

A09833And if you haue formerly preuented, and giuen order for those, what meanes can there remaine?
A09833And that now againe they declared themselues our Enemies, inviolating their oath and Faith?
A09833Are there not many Etoliens in Greece?

A09833But if they can diuert or turne it,( which is an easie thing) of what amazement and great terrour will this Ordonance be?
A09833But out of what Greece would you haue me depart?
A09833But to what end doe I vse these words?
A09833But to what end tend our words?
A09833But was there euer Nation more hardie, nor more warre- like, nor that more carefully obserued the ordinances of warre than the Romanes?

A09833Finally, what neede is there to declare that, which since hath beene done vnto you?
A09833For how can wee otherwise call this kind of Malice?

A09833What the Etoliens require now of you?
A09833What?
A09833When as Darius was in the middest of his Mercenaries, how hath he call''d them?
A09833When as Philip laboured to let him vnderstand that the Rhodiens had beene the first Assailants, Marcus interrupting him said; What haue the Athenians?

A09833Which are they?
A09833Which of you doth not know that as they first falsified their Faith with the Carthaginians comming to vs?
A09833Who are they moreouer which haue made a League, and sworne it with Alexander the Epirote to ruine Acarnania, and to diuide it: Haue not you done it?
A09833Who are they which haue called Antigonus the sonne of Demetrius to subuert the Acheins?
A09833Who hath defeated and quite ruinated them in a short time, but their owne Consideration, and an ouer- weaning confidence in their force and courage?
A09833Who hath sent such Commaunders contrary vnto the publique good, as you haue done?
A09833Who knowes not that if necessity doth force them to attempt a thing, that a great part of the Troupes must perish before the Commanders feele it?
A09833Who will not say but they haue beene the cause of their owne miseries?
A09833Why hee had spoiled the Cyaneins, of the Etolien Burgeoiship, being a friend to the Etoliens?
A09833With whom at this day haue you communication of your hope?
A09833ward?
A09833what affection shall wee beare vnto them?
A09833which of them hath first assailed you?
A61580& quae facta omninò non erant falsis proderent testimoniis aut puerili assertione sirmarent?
A61580Again when the mind by ratiocination hath proceeded thus far and sindes the Sun to be so great, what Idea is there of this magnitude in the mind?
A61580Again, what a vast number of Cities doth Diodorus tell us of that were in Aegypt in their eldest times?
A61580All acts of piety towards God, are a part of Iustice; for as Tully saith, Quid aliud ● st piet as nisi justitia adversus Deos?
A61580All the business is, they quote him as an ancient Writer; but what then?
A61580Although Seneca seems to make a query of it elsewhere; quantum Deus possit?
A61580America, which we suppose to be unpeopled then, all the living creatures should there be destroyed because men had sinned in this?
A61580An nunquid dicemus illius temporis homines usque adeò fuisse vanos, mendaces, stolidos, brutos, ut quae nunquam viderant vidisse se fingerent?
A61580And again if the child bath all its limbs perfect and sound, how comes it not to open its eyes, use the feet, mouth and hands as we do?
A61580And did not Joseph go over all the Land of Aegypt to gather corn?
A61580And doth any one think this sufficient ground to question his mother, because the contrary is impossible to be demonstrated to him?
A61580And for this very miracle, of curing one born blind, was the like ever heard of before?
A61580And how can they be left inexcuseable, who want so much as rational inducements to faith?
A61580And if the understanding of God be infinite, why may not he discover such things to us, which our shallow apprehensions can not reach unto?
A61580And in all the following history of Scripture, is there not mention made of Aegypt still as an entire Kingdom, and of one King over it?
A61580And is not now the notion of an Infinite Being enough to stumble an Atheists reason, when it can so nimbly leap over so apparent contradictions?
A61580And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles then these which this man hath done?
A61580And this needed not so much admiration as followed there upon this action of Sauls, that it should become a Proverb, Is Saul also among the Prophets?
A61580And was not this a worthy Mathematical supposition, for one who would undertake to give an account of the Origine of the Universe without a Deity?
A61580And what if some Arabick Writers mention him?
A61580And what reason can there be to extend the Flood beyond the occasion of it, which was the corruption of mankinde?
A61580Are Musical notes like some seeds Naturalists speak of, which will help to excite a prophetick spirit?
A61580Are they to confirm the truths contained in Scripture?
A61580As Manilius speaks, An dubium est habitare Deum sub pectore nostro, In coelum que redire animas, caelóque venire?

A61580At what time could these things be contrived?
A61580Aut in unam coire qui potuërunt mentem gentes regionibus dissi ● ● ae, ventis coelique convexionibus dimotae?
A61580Because the motion of these particles of matter is casual still according to them; and who knows what chance may do?
A61580Besides what expressions of gratitude can be left to God for his goodness if he interpose not in the affairs of the world?
A61580Besides, if the water received into the stomack forced the passage through the guts, how comes it not to run in the channel it had made for its self?
A61580Besides, is it not very strange that no Historian should mention such a former distribution of several principalities so antiently in Egypt?
A61580Besides, what dependence is there upon each other in the moments of the duration of any created Being?
A61580But are they in good earnest when they say God bound up himself by this speech?
A61580But because Lucretius may be thought to speak more impartially in the case, how rarely doth he describe it?

A61580But let us grant that some arguments will not do it, doth it therefore follow that none can do it?
A61580But what evidence of reason, or demonstration have we that the great bodies of the world did result from such a motion of these small particles?
A61580But what was it which at first set these little particles of matter in motion?
A61580But whence doth it appear possible?
A61580But where do we read any such thing permitted in the Law as the celebrating the first Passeover the 14 of the second moneth?
A61580But will no less then this serve him?
A61580But yet further, is this opinion which is thus caused by the Stars, true or false?
A61580But yet further, these Politicians who first abused the world in telling them there was a God, did they themselves believe there was a God or no?
A61580But yet further; was an Infinite Wisdom, and power necessary to put things into that order they are in?
A61580By what means, what tokens and evidence came such an imposture to their knowledge?
A61580Can Atoms frame Syllogismes in mood and figure?
A61580Can any age be mentioned in history, wherein this tradition was not universally received?
A61580Can any one think that the several muscles and tendons should be placed in the more solid parts for any other end then for the better motion of them?
A61580Can not we say a person is punished while he is in prison and hath his fetters upon him, till his execution comes?
A61580Can the profession of that be honourable, whose practice is not?
A61580Can there possibly be given any fuller evidence of an entire Kingdom, then these are that Egypt was such then?
A61580Can we imagine that the Grand- children of Iacob could be ignorant of their own pedigree, and whence they came into Egypt?
A61580Can we then think that the Law which came afterwards, could disanull the Covenant made 430. years before, as the Apostle excellently reasons?
A61580Can we think the mists and umbrages of the Law could ever cast so glorious a light as the Sun of righteousness himself in his Meridian elevation?
A61580Could Iacob be ignorant of the Country whence his Grand- father Abraham came?
A61580Could Sem be ignorant of the actions before the flood, when Adam the first man, lived some part of his time with Noah?
A61580Could meer Atoms ever dispute whether they were Atoms or no?
A61580Could there be now so great an Epicurisme in contemplation, were the soul of man of Epicurus his mould, a meer complexion of Atoms?
A61580Could they think their pillars should have some peculiar exemption above stronger structures, from the violence of the rough and furious waters?
A61580Cumque possent vobiscum& unanimiter vivere,& inoffensas ducere conjunctiones, gratuita susciperent odia& execrabili haberentur in nomine?
A61580Did Christ and his Apostles discharge their places, when they left something unr ● vealed to us?
A61580Did Saint Paul preach ever the less the words of truth and soberness, because he was told to his face that his Learning had made him mad?
A61580Did ever any lay down their lives to undeceive the world if the Apostles were guilty of abusing it?
A61580Did not God himself promulge it among the people of Israel by the Ministry of Moses?
A61580Did the Devils ever dread so much the name of Socrates or Aristides as they did that of God and of Christ?
A61580Did the designs of Governours and the credulity of all people fall out to be so suitable together?
A61580Did they not?
A61580Did we ever find any thing of the same nature with the world produced in such a manner by such a concourse of Atoms?
A61580Do Hieroglyphicks speak in several Languages, and are they capable of changing their tongues?
A61580Do these things import no more then meer deciding the cases of the ceremonial Law?
A61580Do we not see that the most concerning and weighty actions of mens lives, are built on no other foundation then this moral certainty?
A61580Doth all this now amount only to a removing of prejudices from the person of Christ?
A61580First, how could it possibly be, when his memory was remaining?
A61580For I demand concerning this tradition, Whether ever it had any beginning or no?
A61580For I demand, Is it the duty of those who want that immediate illumination to believe or no?
A61580For I doubt not but Epicurus was fain to argue much against himself, before he could perswade himself to so stupendious a piece of folly?
A61580For can any thing be more plain then that the Messias was to be born in Bethlehem of Iudea?
A61580For can any thing be more plain then the gradual progress of Divine revelation from the beginning of the world?
A61580For can we imagine that a Being of Infinite knowledge should be ignorant of what is done in the world?
A61580For doth not Moses plainly at first give an account of the formation of things in the first six dayes, and of his rest on the seventh?
A61580For first, who ever asserted the Writer of the Dynastyes to have lived in the time of Augustus?
A61580For how agreeable can that opinion be to the Gospel which so evidently puts the most defensive weapons into the hands of unbelief?
A61580For how can the principle of good be God, if he hath not Infinite power, as well as goodness?
A61580For how could such a coppy be the Iudge of all others, which could not be read or understood by those who appealed to it?
A61580For if matter have its original from its self, how can it be subject to the power of another?
A61580For is not life a greater perfection then the want of it?
A61580For the Question being, Whether the person I am to believe hath divine authority for what he saith, What ground can I have to believe that he hath so?
A61580For what a case were they like to be in, if those things which the Apostles so confidently preached were true?
A61580For what is now become of the antiquities of Ionia and the City Miletus written by Cadmus Miletius, supposed to be the first writer of History?
A61580For what is there evident to sense which proves a fortuitous concourse of Atoms for the production of things?
A61580For what is there so desirable in continual reproaches& contumelies?
A61580For what more evident then that Pharaoh who preferred Ioseph, was King of all the Land of Aegypt?
A61580For who can but confess, that even the worser part of the Christian Churches exceeds the best of the popular Assemblies?
A61580For why may not God himself add to his own Laws or alter the form of them, although we are alwayes bound directly to follow Gods declared will?
A61580For with what authority and Majesty doth God in the Scripture forbid all manner of sin?
A61580For, 1. Who were those persons, who did give out this Law to the Iews under Moses his name?
A61580Fourthly, According to this principle, what certainty can we have at all of anything we are to believe?
A61580From whence now comes this apprehension of the bigness of the Sun above that proportion which can possibly come in at our senses?
