And it came to pass that the high priest said unto him: Why do ye go about perverting the ways of the Lord? Why do ye teach this people
that there shall be no Christ, to interrupt their rejoicings? Why do
ye speak against all the prophecies of the holy prophets?

Now the high priest’s name was Giddonah. And Korihor said unto him: Because I do not teach the foolish traditions of your fathers, and because I do not teach this people
to bind themselves down under the foolish ordinances and performances
which are laid down by ancient priests, to usurp power and authority
over them, to keep them in ignorance, that they may not lift up their
heads, but be brought down according to thy words.
