with their weapons, as knowing the man, how wicked and how sadly perjured
he was, and desired me to lead them against him and promised me that they
would utterly destroy both him and Gischala. Hereupon I professed that I was obliged

their good-will to me. However, I entreated them to restrain themselves,
and begged of them to give me leave to do what I intended, which was to
put an end to these troubles without bloodshed; and when I had prevailed
with the multitude of the Galileans to let me do so, I came to Sepphoris.
