EXO 2:12 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

2.12 Cumque circumspexisset huc atque illuc. Aug. Quæst. in Exod. De hoc facto Mosi satis disputavimus in illo opere, quod de vita patriarcharum adversus Faustum scripsimus, utrum indoles in eo laudabilis fuerit, qua hoc peccatum admiserit, sicut uber terra ante utilia semina quadam herbarum inutilium ferocitate laudatur: an ipsum factum justificandum sit? Quod ideo non videtur, quia nullam adhuc legitimam potestatem gerebat, nec divinitus acceptam, nec humana societate ordinatam: et tamen, sicut Stephanus ait in Actibus apostolorum, putabat intelligere fratres suos, quod per eum Deus daret salutem illis, ut per hoc testimonium videatur Moses jam divinitus admonitus quod Scriptura eo loco tacet hoc audere potuisse. ISID. Allegorice. Moses, id est Christus, Ægyptium, id est diabolum nobis in hac peregrinatione injuriosum, nos defendendo occidit, et in arena obruit occisum. Latet enim in eis qui stabile non habent fundamentum. Ecclesiam vero in petra ædificat, et eos qui verbum ejus audiunt et faciunt prudenti viro comparat, qui ædificavit domum suam supra firmam petram. Alios vero stulto comparat, qui supra arenam ædificat.
