Εἰ γὰρ πονηρῶν ἐστιν εὑρετὴς καὶ κακοποιός, πῶς εὐθὺς οὐκ ἀγαθὸς εὑρεθείη, ὡς καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἄλλαις αἱρέσεσιν εἴπαμεν, κατὰ πορνείας καὶ μοιχείας καὶ ἁρπαγῆς καὶ πλεονεξίας νομοθετήσας; θεὸν γὰρ αὐτὸν τῶν Ἰουδαίων καὶ αὐτοὶ λέγουσι· τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις δὲ τὸν νόμον ἔδωκεν, ἐν ᾠ πάντα ταῦτα ἀπηγόρευσεν ὡν εὑρετὴν αὐτὸν λέγουσιν εἶναι. πῶς δὲ πατὴρ τοῦ Σατανᾶ κληθείη ὁ κατ᾿ αὐτοῦ τὰ τοσαῦτα ὑποδείξας;
