They say, the Scriptures are hard, and above the reach of the people. So said the Pelagian Heretic Julian, whom S. Augustine therefore reproveth:1 Exaggeras quàm sit difficilis, pancisque con••niens eruditis, sanctarum cognitio li•erarum: ⟨p. 202⟩Ye enlarge and lay out with many words, how hard a matter the knowledge of the Scripture is, and meet only for a few learned men. You say the Scriptures are hard, who may open them? There is no evidence or trial to be taken by them: they are fit only for a few learned men, they are in no wise fit for the people. Thus said Julian an Heretic.
