Antiochus placed idols in the Temple of God, and blasphemed his name, and brought Jerusalem 1into bondage, he burnt the books of the Law in the fire, and cut them in pieces, that so, the name of God might no more be remembered: but when the torments which God cast upon him began to vex him, then he began to leave off his great pride and self will: when he was plagued, & came to the knowledge of him self with the scourge of God, when he himself might not abide his own stink, he said, It is meet to be subject unto God, & that a man 2which is mortal, should not think himself equal to God through pride. Then he prayed to the Lord, then he delivered the Jews, then he would restore the temple, then he would also become a Jew himself, and go through all the world, and preach the power of God.3

Then he prayed to the Lord, then he deliuered the Iewes, thē he would restore the temple, then he would also become a Iew himselfe, and goe through al the world, and preach the power of God.3
