(2.) Yea, he being one of the twelve, was daily conversant with Christ. Often joined with him in prayer, often sate at his feet hearing the gracious words that came forth of his mouth. It was one of Austins three wishes, that he had seen Christ in the flesh, Judas not only saw him, but dwelt with him, travelled with him, eat and drank with him.
