Also Paul, Thou art called a Jew and restest in the Law, and boastest of God, and knowest his will, and allowest excellent things, and hast learned the Law. Here verily the will of God is said to be that which is commanded in the Law, which will, if it be good (as in deed it is) it is of necessity, that if there be any contrary to this, it be evil, for whatsoever is contrary to good, is evil.
