[268] ὁ μὲν οὖν Γάιος ἔτι μᾶλλον ἐξετραχύνθη τὸ κατὰ τοῦ ἔθνους μῖσος ἐπιτείνων· „εἰ γὰρ Ἀγρίππας“ ἔφασκεν „ὁ
συνηθέστατος καὶ φίλτατος καὶ τοσαύταις ἐνδεδεμένος εὐεργεσίαις ἥττηται τῶν ἐθῶν, ὡς μηδὲ ἀκοὴν ἀνέχεσθαι τὴν κατ’ αὐτῶν, ἀλλ’ ὑπ’ ἐκλύσεως μικροῦ καὶ τελευτῆσαι, τί χρὴ περὶ τῶν ἄλλων προσδοκᾶν, οἷς μηδεμία ¹ πρόσεστιν ὁλκὸς δύναμις εἰς τοὐναντίον;“

On the Virtues and on the Office of Ambassadors. Adressed to Caius First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, Volume 4. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1855.) — 268 focus

[268] Therefore Caius was exasperated still more against our nation, and cherished a more furious anger against us than before, "For," said he, "if Agrippa, who is my most intimate and dearest friend, and one bound to me by so many benefits, is so completely under the influence of his national customs that he cannot bear even to hear a word against them, but faints away to such a degree as to be near dying, what must one expect will be the feelings of others who have no motive or influence to draw them the other way?"
