Διοδώρου. Καὶ ὥσπερ ἐπὶ τοῦ, “ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς ὁ Θεὸς “ εἰς πάθη ἀτιμίας.” καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ, “ ἐτύφλωσεν ὁ Θεὸς τὰ νοή- “ μάτα τῶν ἀπίστων,” οὐχ ὡς τοῦ Θεοῦ κακοποιοῦντος δεχόμεθα τὸν λόγον, ἀλλ’ ὡς συγχωροῦντος τοῖς ἀνθρώποις πράττειν ἃ βούλονται, διὰ τὸ αὐτεξούσιον· οὕτω καὶ νῦν τὸ, “ συνέκλεισε” νοητέον, ὅτι τοὺς βουληθέντας ἀπειθεῖν, εἴασεν ἀπειθεῖν. καὶ συγχωρῶν διόλου τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τὸ ἐφ’ ἑαυτοῦ ἔχειν, πράττειν ὃ βούλεται. συνεχώρησε δὲ ἀπειθεῖν, οὐχ ἵνα κατακρίνῃ παραμείναντας τοῖς ἁμαρτήμασιν. οὐ γὰρ τοῦτο βούλεται· ἀλλ’ ἵνα τῷ χρόνῳ αἰσθομένους ὧν ἁμαρτάνουσι, καὶ μεταγνόντας, ἐλεήσῃ. ἢ καὶ τὸ, “ συνέκλεισεν εἰς ἀπείθειαν,” ἀντὶ τοῦ, διήλεγξεν ἀπειθοῦντας ἐστί. καὶ οἷον ἀπέκλεισεν αὐτοῖς πᾶσαν ἀπολογίαν. ἵνα αἴσθωνται ὅτι οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων λοιπὸν, ἀλλ’ ἐκ φιλανθρωπίας Θεοῦ καὶ ἐλέους σώζονται.
