S. Chrysostome saithe, 1Nunc neque an sint Scripturae quidam sciunt: Spiritus tamen ita dispensavit, ut custodiantur: Now a days there are some, that cannot tell, whether there be any Scriptures, or no. Yet hath the Sprite of God so provided, that they are still preserved.
S. Chrysostome saithe, 1Nunc neque an sint Scripturae quidam sciunt: Spiritus tamen ita dispēsauit, vt custodiantur: Now a daies there are somme, that cannot tel, whether there be any Scriptures, or no. Yet hath the Sprite of God so prouided, that they are stil preserued.
- 1Chrysost in Epis. ad Hebraeos, Homil. 8.
Thus the Jews made their vaunts, that they were the keepers of the Law, & that the Christians had all of them. S. Augustine saith, Judaei dicunt, non Nostra nos Lege uti, 1sed Sua: The Jews say, That we have no Law of our own, but only theirs. Likewise even at this day the Jews keep, & use the Law of God with all reverence: They never lay any other Book upon the Bible: They wash their hands, before they touch it: They will not sit upon the bench, where the Bible lieth: As often, as they either open it, or shut it, they use to kiss it: when the Pope goeth through Rome to his Palace of Lateran, the Jews meet him upon the way, and offer him the Bible, and desire him reverently to embrace it, as though the Pope could have no Bible, but only of them. Al these things notwithstanding, the Pope answereth them of course, even as we may answer you: Sanctam Legem, viri Hebraei, & laudamus, & veneramur: obseruantiā verò vestram, 2& vanam interpretationem damnamus, & improbamus: Ye men of the Jews Profession, we praise, and honour the Holy Law: But your Tradition, and vain Interpretation we utterly condemn, and reprove.
