3.4 Porticum vero, etc. Ipsum scilicet templum quod erat pro foribus oraculi: tripartita enim fuit fabricæ distinctio: hoc est porticus ante templum: et ipsum templum in quo altare thymiamatis, mensa propositionis, et candelabrum luminis erant: et oraculum, id est, Sanctum sanctorum ubi arca testamenti et cherubim post velum collocata. Porticus vero ante templum antiquorum figuram gestat fidelium. Ipsum vero templum eorum qui post incarnationem Domini in mundum venerunt. Domus autem interior regni cœlestis gaudia utrisque data.
