Agrippa also did himself write after the manner following, on behalf
of the Jews: "Agrippa, to the magistrates, senate, and people of the
Ephesians, sendeth greeting. I will that the care and custody of the sacred
money that is carried to the temple at Jerusalem be left to the Jews of
Asia, to do with it according to their ancient custom; and that such as
steal that sacred money of the Jews, and fly to a sanctuary, shall be taken
thence and delivered to the Jews, by the same law that sacrilegious persons
are taken thence. I have also written to Sylvanus the praetor, that no
one compel the Jews to come before a judge on the sabbath day."
Flavius Josephus. The Works of Flavius Josephus. Translated by. William Whiston, A.M. Auburn and Buffalo. John E. Beardsley. 1895.
