“Therefore, he who kills, kills his brother. And from him<br />

will the Earthly Mother turn away, <strong>and</strong> will pluck from<br />

him her quickening breasts. And he will be shunned by her<br />

angels, <strong>and</strong> Satan will have his dwelling in his body. And<br />

the flesh of slain beasts in his body will become his own<br />

you outwards only. I tell you truly, the uncleanness<br />

within is greater by much than the uncleanness without.<br />

And he who cleanses himself outwards but within remains<br />

unclean, is like a tomb that outwards are painted<br />

fair, but are within full of all manner of horrible uncleannesses<br />

<strong>and</strong> abominations.” 34<br />

Meat consumption seemed so important to the Roman<br />

economy that the plagiarists understood the necessity of assuring<br />

the safety of meat consumption in three statements by<br />

the the fictitious figure of Jesus. They succeeded in creating<br />
