stole bis dead body, as the soldiers
asserted, the very act. must have
cuced them of enthusiasm. If it re
mained in the grave, frauds and not
enthusiasm, must have published
that Jesus was risen. * But their
conduct sb>ws, that they were con
vinced, that he rose from the dead,
and appeared to them afterwards,
and ascended to heaven befoie their
eyes. Hence that noble ardor for
the propagation of the truth, which
animated the whole of, their future
life. Men may cull this,, enthusiasm
if they will ; but their department
and writings clearly demonstrate,
that they were the farthest of any
of the.human race from, the charac

despicable sense, of the word.
