VERS. XVII.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.
They shall sourge you in their Synagogues.

BEZA, here, as he does, very often, when he cannot explain a place, suspects it. For thus he writes, When I neither find Synagogues elsewhere, to have their names from houses of Judgment, as the Hebrews speak; nor that civil punishments were taken in Synagogues, I suspect this place. But without any cause, for,

I. In every Synagogue, there was a Civil Triumvirate, that is, three Magistrates, who judged of matters in contest, arisig within that Synagogue; which we have noted be∣fore.

II. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 l 1.1 Scourging was by that Beneh of Three. So that fivefold scourging of St. Paul (2 Cor. XI. 24.) was in the Synagogue, that is, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 By that Bench of Three Magistrates, such as was in every Synagogue.

It is something obscure that is said 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. But beware of men. Of whom else should they beware? But perhaps the word. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Men, may oc∣cur in that sense, as 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 Men, in these forms of speech, 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 that is, The Men of the great Assembly, and, The Men of the House of Judgment, &c. But we will not contend about it.
