Mysticorum expositiones sacramentorum seu Quaestiones in Vetus Testamentum (624 - 636) Isidore of Seville |
| Quotation |
Non est computandus Herodes Major in regibus ejus, tanquam maritus Thamar.
Erat enim alienigena, nec ei sacramento illo mysticae unctionis, tanquam conjugali foedere
cohaerebat, sed tanquam extraneus dominabatur; quam potestatem a Romanis, et a Caesare acceperat,
et sic ejus filii tetrarchae, quorum erat unus Herodes patris nomine appellatus, qui cum Pilato in
passione Domini concordavit.
9. Isti ergo alienigenae usque adeo non deputabantur in regno illo mystico Judaeorum, ut ipsi Judaei
publice clamarent frendentes adversus Christum: Nos non habemus regem, nisi Caesarem. Neque hoc verum, nisi illa universali dominatione Romanorum. |
| Translation |
Herod the Elder is not to be counted as one of their kings, no more than the husband of Thamar. For he was a foreigner, and neither by that sacrament of mystic unction, he inherited by marriage-treaty and ruled as an outsider; what power he received from the Romans, and which he accepted from Caesar, and thus his sons were tetrarchs, of whom one was Herod called after his father, who collaborated with Pilate in the death of our Lord.
9. These foreigners therefore thus are not reckoned among the mystic kingdom of the Jews, as themselves the Jews themselves shouted, raging against Christ: We have no king, except Caesar. And this would not be true, were it not for the universal dominion of the Romans. |
