It was great holiness to garnish the 1Sepulchres of the prophets, and to condemn their own fathers for slaying of them, and yet were they themselves for blind zeal of their own constitutions, as ready as their fathers to slay whosoever testified unto them, the same truth which, the prophets testified unto their fathers. So that Christ compareth all the righteousness of those holy patriarchs, unto the outward beauty of a painted Sepulchre full of stench, and all uncleanness within.
