to_o put_v it_o out_o of_o doubt_n that_o instance_n which_o i_o give_v in_o my_o last_o out_o of_o the_o 2_o chro._n 25.27_o make_v it_o clear_a that_o they_o do_v put_v amaziah_n king_n of_o judah_n

because_o the_o holyghost_n record_v it_o without_o mention_v any_o thing_n that_o may_v blemish_v it_o it_o be_v not_o note_v there_o as_o in_o other_o conspiracy_n that_o it_o be_v do_v by_o any_o

second_o 21.29_o 2_o king_n 15.10_o 2_o king_n 21.29_o because_o the_o holy-ghost_n do_v not_o record_v any_o public_a cognizance_n that_o be_v take_v for_o the_o thing_n as_o a_o crime_n nor_o any_o

the_o true_a reason_n why_o he_o do_v not_o find_v any_o thing_n among_o the_o writing_n of_o the_o rabbin_n now_o extant_a be_v this_o because_o their_o work_n be_v not_o ancient_a enough_o to_o give_v instance_n of_o this_o practice_n for_o beside_o pecuniary_a mulcke_n and_o whip_n the_o jew_n have_v not_o for_o divers_a year_n 11._o mainord_n in_o hilch_n sanhedrin_n cap._n 11._o any_o

destruction_n of_o the_o second_o temple_n and_o so_o much_o be_v observe_v out_o of_o the_o jerusalem_n and_o babylovish_n talmud_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o jew_n do_v not_o put_v any_o to_o death_n for_o any_o fact_n whatsoever_o a_o instance_n of_o which_o we_o find_v in_o the_o case_n of_o one_o that_o defile_v himself_o with_o a_o beast_n *_o which_o by_o the_o very_a know_a law_n

but_o it_o seem_v that_o power_n be_v take_v from_o they_o and_o they_o can_v not_o execute_v it_o so_o that_o you_o do_v see_v there_o may_v be_v a_o great_a reason_n why_o shickard_n can_v not_o light_v upon_o a_o passage_n that_o may_v show_v he_o that_o the_o jew_n do_v put_v any_o of_o their_o king_n to_o death_n because_o that_o the_o jew_n for_o many_o year_n even_o for_o some_o year_n
