Καὶ ξρξατο Νῶε ἄνδρωπος γεωργός γῆς, καὶ ἐφθτευσεν ἀμπτελῶνα, καὶ ἔπιεν ἐκ τοῦ οἴνου, καὶ ἐμεθύσθη, καὶ ἐγυμρνώθη ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ σὐτοῦ. Οὐκ ῇδεῖ Νῶε (63) τὴν τοῦ οἴνου φύσιν, ὅτι μεθύσκει· καὶ τοῦτο μαρτυρεῖ ἡ Γραφὴ λέγουσα τὸ, ἥρξατο, κοὶ ἐγυμνώθη. Τοῦ αὐτοῦ. Οἶνος γήῖνος γυμνοῖ τὸν νοῦν τῆς τῶν τοητῶν γνώσεως. Τοῦ αὐτοῦ. Τοιοῦτος ἦν ὁ καρπὸς τοῦ ξύλου τοῦ γνωστοῦ καλοῦ καὶ πονηροῦ, οῆος ὁ οἶνος, ὁ τὸν Nῶε γυμνώσας. Τοῦ αὐτοῦ. Εἰ καὶ ἐμεθύσθη, καὶ ἐγυμνώθη ὁ Νῶε, ἀλλʼ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ· ἁγίου γὰρ τὸ μὴ ἔξω τοῦ σἴκου αὐτοῦ γυμνοῦσθαι. Οὖτος ἦν γέγας κυνηγὸς ἐναντίον Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ. Ὁ κυνηγὸς (64) οὐκ ἐπὶ δικαίων κεῖται νῦν· καὶ τήρει μήποτε οὐδὲ ἄλλοτε.
