Τοῦ Θεοδωρήτου. Πόλλα γὰρ εἰρηκὼς ἀνωτέρω, τοῦ νόμου καθαπτόμενα, καὶ προορῶν ὡς πνευματικῆς χάριτος ἠξιωμένος, ὅτι τῶν αἱρετικῶν τινὲς εἰς κατηγορίαν ταῦτα τῆς παλαιᾶς λήψονται διαθήκης, καὶ νομιοῦσιν ἄλλου τινὸς εἶναι Θεοῦ τὸν νόμον τὸν παλαιὸν, ἀναγκαίως καὶ τὰς ἀντιθέσεις τίθησι· καὶ ἐπιφέρει τὰς λύσεις. καὶ πρῶτον μὲν, βλάσφημον ἔδειξε τὴν ἐρώτησιν, τὸν ἀπαγορευτικὸν λόγον τεθεικώς· “μὴ γένοιτο.” εἶτα διδάσκει τοῦ νόμου τὸ χρήσιμον· οὐ μόνον γάρ φησιν οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ νόμος ἁμαρτίας διδακτικός· ἀλλὰ καὶ τὸ ἐναντίον, ἁμαρτίας κατήγορος· οὐ γὰρ ἃν ἔγνων, τί τὸ κακὸν, εἰ μὴ ὁ νόμος ἐδίδαξεν.
