Toland wrote many other books, among which are Amyntor ; Nazarenus ; Pantheisticon; History of the Druids; and Hypatia. All his books show versatility and wide reading and are characterized by a pointed, vigorous, and aggressive style.
For the rest, let us not forget that this large painting was made for some altar; and that many a weeping penitent, many a devout heart, has been pierced with its message. On the edge of the stone coffin, which is tinted a warm green within, and lit by some opening at the foot, is the inscription in gold letters: "JESUS NAZARENUS REX JUDÆORUM." The stigmata are painted with unsparing truth.
This gospel in the opinion of Grabe, Mills, and other learned men, was written before the gospels now received as canonical. See Toland's Nazarenus.

It was also said, that a dead man was raised from death to life, his bodie onlie being touched therewith.
"If I only knew what is written on the tablet." "Over His head? My sight seems to have gone." "Inri!" exclaimed somebody, "Inri! Somebody calls out 'Inri." "Those are the letters on the tablet." "But the man's name's not Inri." "Something quite different, my friend. That is Pilate's joke. Jesus Nazarenus Rex Judaeorum." "Don't talk to me in that accursed Latin tongue."
