uel quomodo possibile est, ut ad €&has hostias omnes Iudaei colligerentur et tantis milibus ad gustan-€&dum uiscera illa sufficerent, sicut ait Apion? uel cur inuentum ho-&minem quicumque fuit, non enim suo nomine conscripsit, %2aut €&quomodo eum in suam patriam rex non cum pompa deduxit, dum €&posset hoc faciens ipse quidem putari pius et Graecorum amator €&eximius, assumere uero contra Iudaeorum odium solacia magna &cunctorum? sed haec relinquo; insensatos enim non uerbis sed €&operibus decet arguere. sciunt igitur omnes qui uiderunt construc-€&tionem templi nostri, qualis fuerit, et intransgressibilem eius puri-&ficationis integritatem. quattuor etenim habuit in circuitu porticus, @1 €&et harum singulae propriam secundum legem habuere custodiam; €&in exteriorem itaque ingredi licebat omnibus etiam alienigenis; &mulieres tantummodo menstruatae transire prohibebantur. in se-€&cunda uero porticu cuncti Iudaei ingrediebantur eorumque coniuges, €&cum essent ab omni pollutione mundae, in tertia masculi Iudae-€&orum mundi existentes atque purificati, in quartam autem sacerdotes €&stolis induti sacerdotalibus, in adytum uero soli principes sacerdo-&tum propria stola circumamicti. tanta uero est circa omnia proui-€&dentia pietatis, ut secundum quasdam horas sacerdotes ingredi con-€&stitutum sit; mane etenim aperto templo oportebat facientes traditas &hostias introire et meridie rursus, dum clauderetur templum. deni-€&que nec uas aliquod portari licet in templum, sed erant in eo solum-€&modo posita altare mensa turibulum candelabrum, quae omnia et &in lege conscripta sunt. etenim nihil amplius neque mysteriorum €&aliquorum ineffabilium agitur neque intus ulla epulatio ministratur; €&haec enim quae praedicta sunt habent totius populi testimonium &manifestationemque gestorum. licet enim sint tribus quattuor sacer-€&dotum et harum tribuum singulae habeant hominum plus quam €&quinque milia, fit tamen obseruatio particulariter per dies certos, €&et his transactis alii succedentes ad sacrificia ueniunt et congre-€&gati in templum mediante die a praecedentibus claues templi et €&ad numerum omnia uasa percipiunt, nulla re, quae ad cibum aut &potum adtineat, in templo delata. talia namque etiam ad altare €&offerre prohibitum est praeter illa, quae ad sacrificia praeparantur. €&quid ergo Apionem esse dicimus nisi nihil horum examinantem €&uerba incredula protulisse? sed turpe est; historiae enim ueram ¬itiam se proferre grammaticus non promisit. et sciens templi €&nostri pietatem hanc quidem praetermisit, hominis autem Graeci €&compraehensionem finxit et pabulum ineffabile et ciborum opulen-€&tissimam claritatem et seruos ingredientes ubi nec nobilissimos &Iudaeorum licet intrare, nisi fuerint sacerdotes. hoc ergo pessima €&est impietas atque mendacium spontaneum ad eorum seductionem, €&qui noluerint discutere ueritatem. per ea siquidem mala et ineffa-€&bilia, quae praedicta sunt, nobis detrahere temptauerunt. &@Rursumque tamquam piissimus deridet adiciens fabulae suae @1 €&Mnaseam. ait enim illum retulisse, dum bellum Iudaei contra Iudaeos €&haberent longo quodam tempore in aliqua ciuitate Iudaeorum, qui Dorii €&nominantur, quendam eorum qui in ea Apollinem colebat uenisse ad €&Iudaeos, cuius hominis nomen dicit Zabidon deinde qui eis promisisset €&traditurum se eis Apollinem deum Doriensium uenturumque illum ad &nostrum templum, si omnes abscederent. et credidisse omnem multitu-€&dinem Iudaeorum; Zabidon uero fecisse quoddam machinamentum lig-€&neum et circumposuisse sibi et in eo tres ordines infixisse lucernarum et €&ita ambulasse, ut procul stantibus appareret, quasi stellae per terram$ TH\N POREI/AN POIOUME/NWN, TOU\S ME\N *)IOUDAI/OUS U(PO\ TOU= PARADO/COU €TH=S QE/AS KATAPEPLHGME/NOUS PO/RRW ME/NONTAS H(SUXI/AN A)/GEIN, TO\N €DE\ *ZA/BIDON E)PI\ POLLH=S H(SUXI/AS EI)S TO\N NAO\N PARELQEI=N KAI\ TH\N €XRUSH=N A)POSU=RAI TOU= KA/NQWNOS KEFALH/N, OU(/TW GA\R A)STEI+ZO/MENOS GE/GRAFEN, KAI\ PA/LIN EI)S *DW=RA TO\ TA/XOS A)PELQEI=N.
