Χρυσοστόμου. Τουτέστιν, οὐχ οὕτω γνώριμος. ᾔδεσαν μὲν γὰρ καὶ οἱ πρὸ τοῦ νόμου, ὅτι ἡμάρτανον. ἀκριβέστερον δὲ ἔμαθον μετὰ τὴν τοῦ νόμου δόσιν. διὰ τοῦτο καὶ μείζονος ἦσαν κατηγορίας ὑπεύθυνοι. οὐδὲ γὰρ ἦν ἶσον, φύσιν ἔχειν κατήγορον. καὶ μετὰ τῆς φύσεως καὶ τὸν νόμον φανερῶς διαγορεύοντα ἅπαντα. Ισιδώρου. Οὔκουν τοῦτο αἰνίττεται· ὅτι οὐκ ᾔδεσαν ἁμαρτάνοντες. ἐπεὶ ἀλόγως εὑρεθεῖεν ἃν κολασθέντες, οἱ πρὸ τοῦ νόμου· οἱ μὲν γὰρ, ὕδατος, οἱ δὲ, πυρὸς ἔργον ἐγένοντο· ἀλλ’ ὅτι ᾔδεσαν μὲν, οὐχ οὕτω δὲ ἀκριβῶς. διὸ ἐκολάζοντο μὲν, οὐχ οὕτω δὲ σφοδρῶς.
