Chapter
LXIII.—Zacchæus Appointed.
“But of those who are present, whom shall I
choose but Zacchæus,1024
| 1024 [Comp.
Recognitions, iii. 66. The account here is much
fuller.—R.] | to whom also the
Lord went in1025
and rested, judging
him worthy to be saved?” And having said this, he laid his
hand upon Zacchæus, who stood by, and forced him to sit down in
his own chair. But Zacchæus, falling at his feet, begged
that he would permit him to decline the rulership; promising, at the
same time, and saying, “Whatever it behoves the ruler to do, I
will do; only grant me not to have this name; for I am afraid of
assuming the name of the rulership, for it teems with bitter envy and
danger.”
