12._o when_o st._n paul_n be_v so_o protect_v by_o the_o magistrate_n that_o they_o can_v not_o come_v at_o he_o in_o a_o legal_a judicial_a way_n then_o they_o resolve_v to_o assassinate_n he_o they_o bind_v themselves_o under_o a_o curse_n that_o they_o will_v neither_o eat_v nor_o drink_v till_o they_o have_v kill_v paul_n and_o they_o be_v more_o than_o forty_o of_o the_o jew_n that_o

of_o their_o principle_n which_o suit_v the_o immediate_a scope_n of_o my_o text._n this_o together_o with_o the_o rest_n that_o i_o have_v say_v be_v that_o measure_n that_o the_o apostle_n of_o
