In the Gospel according to John: |Jesus said, Thou couldest have no power against me, unless it were given thee from above.| Also in the third of Kings: |And God stirred up Satan against Solomon himself.| Also in Job, first of all God permitted, and then it was allowed to the devil; and in the Gospel, the Lord first permitted, by saying to Judas, |What thou doest, do quickly.| Also in Solomon, in the Proverbs: |The heart of the king is in God's hand.|
