and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."

Then the High Priest asked him, "Are these statements true?"

Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.

That is what he says in all his letters, when speaking in them of these things. In those letters there are some statements hard to understand, which ill-taught and unprincipled people pervert, just as they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own ruin.
