{Make it as sure as you can} (asphalisasthe h(9373) oidate).
"Make it secure for yourselves (ingressive aorist middle) as you
know how." {Have a guard} (echete koust(9364)ian), present
imperative, a guard of Roman soldiers, not mere temple police.
The Latin term _koust(9364)ia_ occurs in an Oxyrhynchus papyrus of
A.D. 22. "The curt permission to the Jews whom he despised is
suitable in the mouth of the Roman official" (McNeile).
