In the year 1540, Brother Hans Simeraver was
imprisoned for the divine truth, at Schwatz, in the
valley of the Inn; but as they could not draw him
from his faith, nor convince him with the holy
Scriptures, they delivered him to their high priest,
the executioner, who had to lead him out and conquer
him. Thus he was executed with the sword,
and sealed his faith in God with his blood, thus
resisting unto blood, or striving against sin and the
abomination of desolation. Heb. 12:4; Matt. 24:15.
Therefore he shall also, on Mount Sion, among the
great number of those who testified to and confessed
the name of God in the world, receive a palm in his
hands, and be crowned with the unfading crown of
life. 2 Esdr. 2:45; 2 Tim. 4:8.
