11. What of Aaron? When did he ever
think himself more blessed than when he stood between the living and
the dead, and by his presence stayed death from passing from the bodies
of the dead to the lines of the living? Num. xvi. 48. What shall I say of the youth
Daniel, who was so wise that, when in the midst of the lions enraged
with hunger, he was by no means overcome with terror at the fierceness
of the beasts. So free from fear was he, that he could eat, and
was not afraid he might by his example excite the animals to feed on
him. Bel v. 39.
