that this temple was like to that at Jerusalem, and here that it was not
like it, but like a tower, sect. 3, there is some reason to suspect
the reading here, and that either the negative particle is here to be
blotted out, or the word entirely added.

[20] We must observe, that Josephus here speaks of Antiochus who
profaned the temple as now alive, when Onias had leave given them
by Philometer to build his temple; whereas it seems not to have been
actually built till about fifteen years afterwards. Yet, because it is
said in the Antiquities that Onias went to Philometer, B. XII. ch.
9. sect. 7, during the lifetime of that Antiochus, it is probable he
petitioned, and perhaps obtained his leave then, though it were not
actually built or finished till fifteen years afterward.
