For where as the unbelievers would not give credence to the Apostles, that is to say, their preachers, but cried out upon ⟨p. 234⟩them as upon ungodly heretics: when they now shall see those present with the judge of all men, they shall immediately be overcome by the Apostles, and have witness in themselves, that they shall be and are justly condemned. And for this matter read the .4. and .5. Chapter of the Book of Wisdom, which serveth very well to this purpose. And seeing it is manifest, that, in the life to come, even the wicked shall know the good, how much more then shall one good person know another, and one faithful another. In the Transfiguration of the Lord upon the mount appeared Moses and Elijah, and were ⟨p. 235⟩known of the three disciples of the Lord:1 yea they knew the Lord himself, though he was now transfigured.
