A86677	Lazarus's sores licked; or, An answer to these three positions: I: that Christ paid tribute to Cæsar. II. That Cæsar was an usurper in Judea, and had onely bare possession, but no right at all. III. That bare possession, without any right to a throne, gives title sufficient to the usurper, and is ground sufficient for people to subject to that usurper.	Hall, Edmund, 1619 or 20-1687.	1650 (1650)	Wing H326; Thomason E615_19; ESTC R202495	17,108	24
