Hereupon the people of Taricheae loudly commended him; but those
of Tiberias, with the rest of the company, gave him hard names, and threatened
what they would do to him; so both sides left off quarrelling with Josephus,
and fell on quarrelling with one another. So he grew bold upon the dependence
he had on his friends, which were the people of Taricheae, and about forty
thousand in number, and spake more freely to the whole multitude, and reproached
them greatly for their rashness; and told them, that with this money he
would build walls about Taricheae, and would put the other cities in a
state of security also; for that they should not want money, if they would
but agree for whose benefit it was to be procured, and would not suffer
themselves to be irritated against him who procured it for them.
