“If the honour of the priesthood and respect for your title did not restrain me, and if I did not know what the Apostle says, “I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people,” how loudly and indignantly might I complain of what you relate!” — editor's note: Acts xxiii. 5; Ex. xxii. 28.
