And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem… It is said of John Huss that, on a countryman throwing a faggot at his head, he exclaimed, "Oh, holy simplicity! God send thee better light! You roast the goose now, but a swan shall come after me, and he shall escape your fire." Oddly enough, "Huss" is the Bohemian for "goose," while the meaning of "Luther" is "a swan." Parallel Verses KJV: And Saul was consenting unto his death.
