People to Rebellion, though otherwise they taught Mens Children never so diligently: or, that the Pharisees in refusing to bind their Allegiance and Faith to Caesar, by an Oath, did not thereby shew themselves to be trai∣terously affected toward him: or, that it was not a seditious Doctrine to be detested of all good Subjects, which Judas Gaulo∣nites, and his Fellows, delivered to the Peo∣ple, in teaching them to refuse all Taxati∣ons imposed by the Romans, their lawful Magistrates; and rather to rebel than to pay any tribute unto them: or, that they did not very grievously sin (both the High-Priest's Son and the rest) who either refu∣sed to offer Sacrifice, or to pray for Caesar: or, that the High-Priests then were not a wicked Brood, degenerated far from their first Institution; or, that they did not greatly offend God, in permitting the Peo∣ple to be infected by their inferiour Priests, and other religious Persons, with any of the said false positions, and traiterous con∣ceits: or, that they (the said High-Priests) did not most grosly erre in all those points, and particulars, wherein they opposed them∣selves against the Person and Doctrine of our Saviour Christ; He doth greatly Erre.
