Notes	"Babiism:" p. 346 "...For how many of our consuls have not been in the East, during the last fifty years, who knew nothing of the Babiism which was spreading around them ; and what should we know of it now, except for the labours of Mr. E. G. Browne? But, argues Lucius, Josephus says nothing about [Therapeutism in Egypt]. Is he not also siilent about the Christianity which was growing up under his eyes? Perhaps he ignored Christianity and Therapeutism for the same reason, namely, that he disliked the Jews whom he regarded as visionary and unpractical...." Note that the philosopher Philo of Alexandria was a Jewish contemporary of Jesus Christ.
