En contexte

35Thou, O Lord of all things, who wantest nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thy habitation should be amongst us.

36Therefore now, O Lord the holy of all holies, keep this house for ever undefiled which was lately cleansed.

37Now Razias, one of the ancients of Jerusalem, was accused to Nicanor, a man that was a lover of the city, and of good report, who for his affection was called the father of the Jews.

38This man, for a long time, had held fast his purpose of keeping himself pure in the Jews’ religion, and was ready to expose his body and life, that he might persevere therein.

39So Nicanor being willing to declare the hatred that he bore the Jews, sent five hundred soldiers to take him.
