for Moses said to the fathers, "a prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, of your brethren, like unto me; observe whatever he shall say to you.

they suborned men, who said, we have heard him speak irreverently of Moses, and of God.

for we have heard him say, that Jesus the Nazarene shall destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses delivered us.

in which time Moses was born, who was exceeding fair, and nourished in his father's house three months:

at length Moses was instructed in all the sciences of the Egyptians, and had great influence by his counsels and actions.

but he that did his neighbour the injury repelled Moses, saying, who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

will you kill me as you kill'd the Egyptian yesterday? at these words Moses fled,

Moses was astonished at this vision: and as he drew near to observe it, he heard the voice of the Lord, which said to him,

"I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." and Moses trembled so, he durst not observe any longer.

this Moses whom they refused, saying, who made thee a ruler and a judge? the very same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hands of the angel that appeared to him in the bush.

this is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, "a prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear."

"make us gods, said they to Aaron, to be our guides: for as for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him."

our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, ordering Moses to make it according to the model that he had seen.

by him, every one who believes, is purged from all that guilt, for which the law of Moses had made no such provision.

However some that arrived from Judea, told the Gentile converts, unless you are circumcised agreeably to the law of Moses, you cannot be saved.

but some of the sect of the Pharisees who had embraced the faith, started up, pretending that the Gentiles ought to be circumcised, and observe the law of Moses.

for as to the law of Moses, that has been published in every city a considerable time, being read in the synagogues every sabbath-day.

now they have heard that you instruct the Jews that are among the Gentiles to abandon Moses, by telling them they must not circumcise their children, nor observe the establish'd rites.

but by the divine favour I am still preserv'd alive, testifying to the small and to the great nothing but what Moses and the prophets have predicted should happen: "that Christ should suffer:

Having therefore set him a day, they came in great numbers to his lodgings; where he explain'd and confirm'd the reality of the gospel-dispensation, from morning to night, enforcing what the writings of Moses and the prophets had affirm'd concerning Jesus.
