Ἐκεῖνος λέγεται δευτέραν [fol. 166] περιτομὴν μαχαίραις πετρίναις τὸν λαὸν περιτετμηκέναι [cf. Jos., V, 2-3], ὅπερ κήρυγμα ἦν τῆς περιτομῆς ταύτης ἧς περιέτεμεν ἡμᾶς αὐτὸς Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς ἀπὸ τῶν λίθων καὶ τῶν ἄλλων εἰδώλων, καὶ θημωνιὰς ποιήσας τῶν ἀπὸ ἀκροβυστίας, τουτέστιν ἀπὸ τῆς πλάνης τοῦ κόσμου, ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ περιτμηθέντων πετρίναις μαχαίραις, τοῖς Ἰησοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν λόγοις. Ὅτι γὰρ λίθος καὶ πέτρα ἐν παραβολαῖς ὁ Χριστὸς διὰ τῶν προφητῶν ἐκηρύσσετο, ἀποδέδεικταί μοι.
