Defensio Thesium de Sabbato.
13 I Take notice of Tertull, Justin Martyr:] true; but they alter not my judgement: 1And why? I find in them only a bare assertion, and that of a thing so remote from their times, that they could not know it otherwise then by relation. From the Scripture they had none; happily they had it from some Jews. Galatinus allegeth some. But I oppose Jews to Jews. Philo Judaeus de opificio Mundi not only is of a contrary opinion, but holdeth also that it was a feast common to all Nations, [Greek or Hebrew]. And peradventure some such thing is meant by Hesiod his [Greek or Hebrew]. And it is not unlikely that God made the observation of the day a memorial of the Creation. But I will not enlarge that discourse. It shall suffice that Philo Judaeus, and Aben Ezra also and others think otherwise, whose judgement our Orthodox 2Divines do, if not all, yet for the most part follow. Read them upon the second of Genesis.
