18.21 Provide autem, etc. Ad custodiam humilitatis ab alienigena instruitur, ne, qui tot arcana Dei ab ipso Deo discebat, extolleretur, et putaret se humano consilio non egere. Præfigurabatur etiam quod doctrina gentium Judæorum scientiam et superbiam superaret; et quæ in lege deerant, fideles ex gentibus complenda suggererent, et spiritualem intellectum ad legem Dei afferrent. Sciebat quoque Moyses quia hunc populum lex audiret, et faceret quæcunque diceret, legis quoque diminutio suggerente Evangelio fieret. Et constitue, etc. ORIG., hom. 11. Ordinabis, inquit, eos tribunos et centuriones, et indicabunt populum omni hora, verumtamen, quod gravius fuerit referent ad te. Audient principes populi et presbyteri plebis, qui debent omni hora populum judicare, semper et sine intermissione sedere in judicio, dirimere lites, et reconciliare dissidentes, in gratiam revocare discordes. Discat unusquisque ex Scripturis sanctis officium suum. Moyses, inquit, ut sit in his quæ ad Deum sunt, et verbum Dei edisserat populis. Cæteri vero principes, quos appellavit tribunos, quia tribui præsunt, vel centuriones, vel quinquagenarii qui præsunt minoribus judiciis, quæ ad singulos pertinent dirimentes. Quam figuram etiam in futuro sæculo servandam puto. Unde Matth. 19: Cum sederit filius hominis super thronum majestatis suæ, sedebitis et vos super sedes duodecim, etc. Vides ergo quia non solum Dominus judicat, cui omne judicium dedit Pater Joan. 5., sed constituit principes qui judicent de minoribus causis; verbum autem quod gravius fuerit, referant ad ipsum. Ideo dicit Dominus de quodam, Matth. 5: Quia reus erit concilii; de alio autem, Matth. 12: Reus erit gehennæ ignis. Sed et de omni verbo otioso dicuntur reddere rationem. Et ideo non dixit quia Deo præstabimus rationem, sicut de perjurio. Reddes autem Domino juramenta tua. Matth. 12: Regina quoque austri surget in judicio cum viris generationis hujus, et condemnabit eam. Ecce aliud genus judicii, Matth. 13: Qui habet aures audiendi, audiat: hæc enim omnia umbra sunt cœlestium et imago futurorum. IDEM. Sicut scriptum est Eccle. 1: Non satiabitur oculus visu, nec auris auditu, nec nos satiari possumus considerando quæ scripta sunt, quibus nos ædificet, quantis nos modis instruat. Cum enim conspicio quod Moyses propheta Deo plenus, cui Deus facie ad faciem loquebatur Exod. 33., consilium accepit a Jethro socero sacerdote Madian, admiratione nimia obstupesco. Audivit enim Moyses vocem soceri sui, et fecit quæcunque dixit ei. Non dixit, Quia Deus mihi loquitur quid agere debeam, quomodo ab homine consilium accipiam, et ab homine gentili, alieno a populo Dei? et non quis dicat, sed quid dicatur auscultat. Nos ergo si invenimus aliquid sapienter a gentilibus dictum, non cum auctoris nomine spernamus et dicta; nec quia legem Dei tenemus, convenit nobis tumere superbia et spernere prudentium verba; sed omnia probantes, quod bonum est teneamus. Qui autem hodie populis præsunt, non dico si jam eis aliqua a Deo revelata sunt: sed si in scientia legis aliquid meriti habent, consilium dedignantur inferioris, etiam sacerdotis, nedum laici, nedum gentilis: sed Moyses, qui erat mansuetus super omnes homines Num. 12., accepti consilium inferioris, ut principibus daret formam humilitatis, et signaret imaginem futuri sacramenti. Sciebat quandoque futurum ut gentiles bonum consilium proferrent, apud Moysen bonum et spiritualem intellectum afferentes ad legem, et audiret eos lex faciens omnia quæ dicerent. Non enim potest facere lex sicut Judæi dicunt, quia infirmatur lex in carne, id est in littera, et nihil potest secundum litteram. Nihil enim ad perfectum adduxit lex Hebr. 7.. Secundum hoc autem consilium quod nos afferimus ad legem, possunt omnia spiritualiter fieri, et sacrificia offerri, quæ modo carnaliter non possunt; potest lex lepræ spiritualiter servari. Sicut ergo intelligimus, sentimus et consilium damus, omnia facit lex: secundum litteram vero non omnia, sed pauca.

18.21 Provide autem, etc. Ad custodiam humilitatis away alienigena instruitur, ne, who tot arcana God away ipso Deo discebat, extolleretur, and putaret se humano consilio not/no egere. Præfigurabatur also that doctrina gentium Yudæorum scientiam and superbiam superaret; and which in lege deerant, fideles ex gentibus complenda suggererent, and spiritualem intellectum to legem God afferrent. Sciebat quoque Moyses because this_one the_people lex audiret, and faceret quæcunque diceret, legis quoque diminutio suggerente Evangelio fieret. And constitue, etc. ORIG., hom. 11. Ordinabis, inquit, them tribunos and centuriones, and indicabunt the_people all hora, verumtamen, that gravius has_been referent to you(sg). Audient principes populi and presbyteri plebis, who debent all hora the_people yudicare, semper and without intermissione sedere in yudicio, dirimere lites, and reconciliare dissidentes, in gratiam revocare discordes. Discat unusquisque ex Scripturis sanctis officium suum. Moyses, inquit, as sit in his which to God are, and verbum God edisserat populis. Cæteri vero principes, which he_called tribunos, because tribui præsunt, or centuriones, or quinquagenarii who præsunt minoribus yudiciis, which to singulos pertinent dirimentes. Quam figuram also in futuro sæculo servandam puto. Unde Matth. 19: Since sederit filius hominis super thronum mayestatis suæ, sedebitis and vos super sedes duodecim, etc. Vides ergo because not/no solum Master yudicat, cui omne yudicium he_gave Pater Yoan. 5., but constituit principes who yudicent about minoribus causis; verbum however that gravius has_been, referant to ipsum. Ideo dicit Master about quodam, Matth. 5: Quia guilty will_be concilii; about alio autem, Matth. 12: Reus will_be gehennæ ignis. But and about all verbo otioso dicuntur reddere rationem. And ideo not/no he_said because Deo præstabimus rationem, like about peryurio. Reddes however Domino yuramenta your. Matth. 12: Regina quoque austri surget in yudicio when/with viris generationis huyus, and condemnabit eam. Behold aliud genus yudicii, Matth. 13: Who habet aures audiendi, audiat: this because everything umbra are cœlestium and imago futurorum. IDEM. Sicut scriptum it_is Eccle. 1: Non satiabitur oculus visu, but_not auris auditu, but_not nos satiari possumus considerando which scripta are, to_whom nos ædificet, quantis nos modis instruat. Since because conspicio that Moyses propheta Deo plenus, cui God facie to faciem loquebatur Exod. 33., consilium accepit a Yethro socero sacerdote Madian, admiratione nimia obstupesco. Audivit because Moyses vocem soceri sui, and fecit quæcunque he_said to_him. Non dixit, Quia God mihi loquitur quid agere debeam, quomodo away homine consilium accipiam, and away homine gentili, alieno a populo God? and not/no who/any dicat, but quid dicatur auscultat. Nos ergo when/but_if invenimus aliquid sapienter a gentilibus dictum, not/no when/with auctoris nomine spernamus and dicta; but_not because legem God tenemus, convenit nobis tumere superbia and spernere prudentium verba; but everything probantes, that bonum it_is teneamus. Who however hodie populis præsunt, not/no dico when/but_if yam eis aliqua a Deo revelata sunt: but when/but_if in scientia legis aliquid meriti habent, consilium dedignantur inferioris, also sacerdotis, nedum laici, nedum gentilis: but Moyses, who was mansuetus super everyone homines Num. 12., accepti consilium inferioris, as principibus would_give formam humilitatis, and signaret imaginem futuri sacramenti. Sciebat quandoque futurum as gentiles bonum consilium proferrent, apud Moysen bonum and spiritualem intellectum afferentes to legem, and audiret them lex faciens everything which dicerent. Non because potest facere lex like Yudæi dicunt, because infirmatur lex in carne, id it_is in littera, and nihil potest after/second litteram. Nihil because to perfectum adduxit lex Hebr. 7.. Secundum hoc however consilium that nos afferimus to legem, possunt everything spiritualiter fieri, and sacrificia offerri, which modo carnaliter not/no possunt; potest lex lepræ spiritualiter servari. Sicut ergo intelligimus, sentimus and consilium damus, everything facit lex: after/second litteram vero not/no everything, but pauca.
