III.1742
| 1742 This fragment is
found in Œcumenius.
|
Judas walked about in this
world a sad1743
example of impiety; for his body having
swollen to such an extent that he could not pass where a chariot could
pass easily, he was crushed by the chariot, so that his bowels gushed
out.1744
| 1744 Literally,
“were emptied out.” Theophylact, after quoting this passage,
adds other particulars, as if they were derived from Papias. [But see
Routh, i. pp. 26, 27.] He says that Judas’s eyes were so swollen
that they could not be seen, even by the optical instruments of
physicians; and that the rest of his body was covered with runnings and
worms. He further states, that he died in a solitary spot, which was left
desolate until his time; and no one could pass the place without stopping
up his nose with his hands. | E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
