    Job 12:17

    Early Christian Commentary - (A.D. 100 - A.D. 325)

    Anf-01 viii.iv.lxxviii Pg 8
    Isa. xxix. 13, 14.



    Anf-01 viii.iv.xxxii Pg 3
    Isa. xxix. 14.

    and may cease to deceive yourselves and those who hear you, and may learn of us, who have been taught wisdom by the grace of Christ. The words, then, which were spoken by David, are these:2030

    2030


    Anf-01 viii.iv.cxxiii Pg 5
    Isa. xxix. 14.

    Deservedly too: for you are neither wise nor prudent, but crafty and unscrupulous; wise only to do evil, but utterly incompetent to know the hidden counsel of God, or the faithful covenant of the Lord, or to find out the everlasting paths. ‘Therefore, saith the Lord, I will raise up to Israel and to Judah the seed of men and the seed of beasts.’2427

    Anf-03 v.iv.vi.v Pg 16
    1 Cor. i. 19; from Isa. xxix. 14.

    Now, since these are the Creator’s words, and since what pertains to the doctrine5400

    5400 Causam.

    of the cross he accounts as foolishness, therefore both the cross, and also Christ by reason of the cross, will appertain to the Creator, by whom were predicted the incidents of the cross.  But if5401

    5401 Aut si: introducing a Marcionite cavil.

    the Creator, as an enemy, took away their wisdom in order that the cross of Christ, considered as his adversary, should be accounted foolishness, how by any possibility can the Creator have foretold anything about the cross of a Christ who is not His own, and of whom He knew nothing, when He published the prediction? But, again, how happens it, that in the system of a Lord5402

    5402 Apud dominum.

    who is so very good, and so profuse in mercy, some carry off salvation, when they believe the cross to be the wisdom and power of God, whilst others incur perdition, to whom the cross of Christ is accounted folly;—(how happens it, I repeat,) unless it is in the Creator’s dispensation to have punished both the people of Israel and the human race, for some great offence committed against Him, with the loss of wisdom and prudence? What follows will confirm this suggestion, when he asks, “Hath not God infatuated the wisdom of this world?”5403

    5403


    Anf-03 v.iv.iv.vi Pg 10
    Isa. xxix. 14.

    and again: “With your ear ye shall hear, and not understand; and with your eyes ye shall see, but not perceive: for the heart of this people hath growth fat, and with their ears they hear heavily, and their eyes have they shut; lest they hear with their ears, and see with their eyes, and understand with the heart, and be converted, and I heal them.”3165

    Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxv Pg 17
    Isa. xxix. 14, Sept.

    So in another passage He intimates both that He has concealed, and that He will also reveal:  “I will give unto them treasures that have been hidden, and secret ones will I discover to them.”4480

    Thanks to this simplicity of truth, so opposed to the subtlety and vain deceit of philosophy, we cannot possibly have any relish for such perverse opinions.  Then, if God “quickens us together with Christ, forgiving us our trespasses,”6086
