FULVIA, a Roman Lady, who, having embraced the Religion of the Hebrews, gave Gold and Purple to some Jews, who had instructed her, with an intention that these things should be sent to the Temple of Jerusalem. But the Jews, into whose hands this present was put, kept it, and made their own advantage of it; which being reported to the Emperor Tiberius, was the cause of his publishing that Edict, whereby he banished all the Jews from Rome.
