Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'I can send you some specimens of my Samaritan medals when our communications are established. I have some that are very rare, well engraved, and have never been published. I shall include in the notes a plate of shekels with a a reference to Matthew 17:24-27; page 64 of harmony. In my opinion, these were struck by Judas Maccabeus, and all others, both silver and bronze, by Simon Maccabeus, his brother and successor. I have indicated the date of each of them. With respect to the characters on these medals, a view was imputed to me in a journal or in the Biblioteque d'Hollande with which I completely disagree, for I am convinced that they the same as those with which Moses wrote the law.' (English translation from Minc 1985, p. 112)
