τοσούτων διὰ τῶν καθ’ Eβραίους θεολόγων ἀναπεφτονημένων καὶ εἰς δεῦρο πᾶσιν εἰς φανερὸν τὰς ἐκβάσεις ἐπιδεικνυμένων, τίς οὐκ ἂν τὸ ἔνθεον ἀποθαυμάσειρ τῶν ἀνδρῶν; τίς δ’ οὐχὶ τῆς κατ’ αὐτοὺς θεοσεβείας καὶ φιλοσοφίας τὰ μαθήματά τε καὶ τὰ δόγματα κύρια καὶ ἀληθῆ εἶναι ὁμολογήσει, τὴν ἀπόδειξιν παρεχόμενα οὐκ ἐν λέξεσι κεκομψευμέναις, οὐδ’ ἐν δεινό- τητι λόγων, ἢ κακοτέχνοις ἀπάταις συλλογισμῶν, ἐν ἁπλῇ δὲ καὶ ἀπανούργῳ διδασκαλίᾳ, ἧς τὸ γνήσιον καὶ εἰλικρινὲς τῆς ἀληθείας ἡ τῶν θεσπεσίων αὐτῶν ἐκείνων ἀνδρῶν ἀρετή τε καὶ θεογνωσία παρίστησιν ;
