Verse 48
48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
Ver. 48. Judas, betrayest thou, &c. ] Sic Iudaei, sub praetextu pietatis maxime delinquebant; et Deo osculum sine amore praebebant. (Bucholcer.) Julian the Apostate was no friend to Basil, though he wrote to him, φιλος φιλω και αδελφος αδελοω . Nor was Libanius the more to be believed for saying (in Epist. ad Basilium), βασιλειου με επαινησαντος κατα παντων εχω τα νικητηρια . If Basil commend me, I despise other men’s worse censures.
