The harmony of the Gospels in the holy history of the humiliation and sufferings…

6. Every one is easily induced & persuaded to destroy a worm. So were th• people, who a few days before had cried Hosanna to the Son of David, easily persuaded by the Priests, Scribes and Pharisees to cry, crucify him, and give us Barabbas.

7. They fear no body to take vengeance for wrong done to a worm, so were the Jews fearless of any vengeance to be inflicted upon them for the wrong and injury done unto Jesus Christ, which made them bold to expose themselves and their posterity unto any such vengeance, saying, his blood be upon us, and upon our Children. And never was blood more sharply revenged, and a curse more severely executed, for they have been under that curse near seventeen hundred years, and they are still under it to this day.

Quest. But why did Jesus Christ take upon him such a low condition in this world? why came he not a Prince in the external Royalty of his Father David?
