Chapter
XLVII.—Simon’s Cavil.
To this Simon replied:658
| 658 [Compare Homily
XVII. 4.—R.] | “From the words of your
master I shall refute you, because even he introduces to all men a
certain God who was known. For although both Adam knew the God
who was his creator, and the maker of the world; and Enoch knew him,
inasmuch as he was translated by him; and Noah, since he was ordered by
him to construct the ark; and although Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob,
and Moses, and all, even every people and all nations, know the maker
of the world, and confess him to be a God, yet your Jesus, who appeared
long after the patriarchs, says: ‘No one knows the Son, but
the Father; neither knoweth any one the Father, but the Son, and he to
whom the Son has been pleased to reveal Him.’659
Thus, therefore, even your Jesus
confesses that there is another God, incomprehensible and unknown to
all.”
