11.2 Dum hæc. RAB. David graviter peccavit, etc., usque ad qui tam grave vulnus peccati, humilitatis confessione sanavit. Bethsabee. ISID. Puteus satietatis, vel puteus septimus. Ecclesia vero vocatur puteus aquæ vivæ, et huic puteo septenarii nomen numeri in Spiritus sancti significatione conjungitur, propter rationem Pentecostes, quo die de cœlo Spiritus sanctus missus est. Ad quadraginta novem, id est, septies septem unum additur, quoniam unitas commendatur. Unde: Solliciti servare unitatem spiritus in vinculo pacis Eph. 4.. Dono itaque spiritali, id est, septenario facta est Ecclesia puteus satietatis, quia factus est in ea fons aquæ salientis in vitam æternam, quam qui biberit non sitiet in æternum Joan. 4.. GREG. Adhuc carnis corruptibilis pondere gravati non valemus sic vivere, ut nulla nos possit culpæ delectatio pulsare. Sed aliud est nolentem tangi, et aliud consentientem. Sancti autem viri tanto vigilantiori se circumspectione custodiunt, quanto se pulsari sinistris motibus vel transitorie dedignantur, ut si quid forte cor illicitum concupisceret, pressus per disciplinæ magisterium oculus videre recusaret: sicut enim sæpe tentatio per oculos trahitur, sic nonnunquam concepta intrinsecus compellit sibi extrinsecus oculus deservire. Plerumque enim quælibet res innocenti mente respicitur, sed in ipso conspectu animus concupiscentiæ gladio confunditur. Non enim David Uriæ conjugem studiose respexit, quia concupiverat, sed potius concupivit, quia incaute respexit. Justo vero retributionis examine qui exteriori negligenter utitur, interiori oculo cæcatur. Sæpe autem jam intrinsecus concupiscentia dominatur, et illecebratus animus ad usus suos sensus corporeos famulari more tyrannidis exigit, suisque voluptatibus oculos servire compellit, et fenestras luminis aperit ad tenebras cæcitatis. Unde sancti viri cum sinistra delectatione pulsari se sentiunt, ipsa per quæ formæ species ad mentem ingreditur, disciplinæ magisterio lumina restringunt, ne pravæ cogitationi visio lenocinata famuletur: quæ si unquam subtiliter custodiri negligitur, cogitationis immunditia ad operationem transit. GREG. Sæpe res quælibet per historiam virtus est, per significationem culpa; sicut aliquando culpa in facto, in scripto prophetiæ virtus. Quis enim non detestetur quod David in solario deambulans Bethsabee Uriæ concupivit uxorem, quem tamen a prælio revertentem ire domum monet, pedes lavare? Qui protinus respondit dicens: Arca Dei sub pellibus, et ego in domo mea requiescam? Quem David ad mensam propriam suscepit eique epulas per quas mori debeat tradit. Tenet ergo David figuram ejus de quo scriptum est: In sole posuit tabernaculum suum Psal. 18.. Qui Bethsabee ad se jubet educere, id est legem litteræ carnali populo conjunctam spirituali sibi intellectu sociare. Bethsabee enim puteus septem dicitur, quia per cognationem legis infusione specialis gratiæ perfecta nobis sapientia ministratur. Urias vero Judaicum populum significat, qui interpretatur lux mea Dei: Judaicus enim populus qui de accepta legis scientia extollitur, quasi Dei luce gloriatur. Sed huic David uxorem abstulit sibique conjunxit, quia manu fortis Redemptor apparens, dum de se spiritualiter legem loqui innotuit, per hoc quod juxta litteram tenebantur, hanc a Judaico populo extraneam demonstravit, sibi conjunxit, quia se per illam prædicatum declaravit. Uriam tamen ad domum monet ire, et pedes lavare, quia incarnatus Judæis præcipit, ut ad conscientiam redeant, et sordes operum fletibus tergant; ut specialiter mandata legis intelligant, et post tantam duritiam præceptorum, fontem baptismi invenientes, ad aquam post laborem currant. Sed Urias, qui arcam Domini esse sub pellibus meminit, respondet, quia domum suam intrare non possit. Quod dicit: Ego mandata Dei in sacrificiis carnalibus video, et redire ad conscientiam per spiritualem intelligentiam non requiro. Quasi enim arcam Dei esse sub pellibus dicit, quia præcepta Dei non nisi exhibendo ministerium carnalis sacrificii intelligit. Hunc tamen redire domum nolentem David ad mensam vocat, quia cum Judæi ad conscientiam reverti contemnant, Christus tamen spiritualia prædicat dicens: Si crederetis Mosi, crederetis forsitan et mihi, de me enim ille scripsit Joan. 5.. Legem enim Judæus tenet, quæ ejus divinitatem loquitur, cui credere dedignatur. Unde et Urias ad Joab cum epistolis ex quibus occidi debeat, mittitur, quia Judæus legem portat, qua convincente moriatur. Cum enim mandata legis retinens implere nititur, ipse defert judicium unde damnetur. Quid ergo per factum istud David scelestius? Quid Uria mundius? Sed ad mysterium: quid David sanctius? Quid Uria infidelius? Quia ille per vitæ culpam prophetiæ signat innocentiam; et istæ per vitæ innocentiam in prophetia exprimit culpam. Virtus enim sacri eloquii sic transacta narrat, ut ventura exprimat: sic in facto rem approbat, ut in mysterio contradicat. Sic gesta damnat, ut hæc mystice gerenda suadeat.

11.2 While these_things. RAB. David seriously he_sinned, etc., until to who/which tam grave wound(n)/injury of_sin, humility confession healed. Bathsheba. ISID. Well/cistern satiety, or well/cistern the_seventh. Assembly/Church indeed/however is_called well/cistern water alive, and to_this stink/I_smell sevenfold name numbers in/into/on Spirit holy meaning is_joined, because reason Pentecost, where day from/about sky Spirit holy missus it_is. To forty nine, that it_is, seven_times seven one added, since/because unity recommended. From_where/who: Anxious to_keep unity spirit in/into/on tie of_peace Eph. 4.. Gift therefore spiritual, that it_is, seven_times facts it_is Assembly/Church well/cistern satiety, because became it_is in/into/on them source/spring water jumping in/into/on life eternal, how who/which may_have_drunk not/no will_be_thirsty in/into/on eternal Yohan. 4.. GREG. Still of_flesh corruptible by_weight burdened not/no we_are_strong so to_live, as none us can guilt pleasure/delight to_beat. But something_else it_is being_unwilling to_touch, and something_else agreeing. Holy however men so_much more_awake himself careful_consideration they_keep, how_much himself to_be_beaten on_the_left movements or cursorily they_disdain, as when/but_if what perhaps heart unlawful would_desire, pressed through discipline instruction the_eye to_see would_reject: like because often temptation through the_eyes is_drawn/pulled, so sometimes conceived internally/inwards compels to_himself externally/outwardly the_eye to_serve. Usually/frequently because any thing innocent mind is_looked_back, but in/into/on himself in_sight mind of_lust with_a_sword is_confused. Not/No because David Uriah spouse diligently/eagerly looked_back, because had_desired, but rather desired, because incautious looked_back. Just indeed/however of_retribution examine who/which more_outside carelessly uses, interior with_an_eye is_blinded. Often however already internally/inwards desire dominates, and he/that_onecebratus mind to use(n) his_own sense corporeal to_be_a_servant more tyranny demands, and_his pleasures the_eyes to_serve compels, and the_windows of_light opens to darkness blindness. From_where/who holy men when/with left_side pleasure to_be_beaten himself they_feel, herself through which form in_appearances to mind enters, discipline teaching lights they_draw_tight, not wicked thought vision worked_as_a_procurer may_be_a_servant: which when/but_if ever subtly to_be_guarded is_neglected, of_thought impurity to operation transit. GREG. Often thing any through history virtue it_is, through meaning guilt; like sometimes guilt in/into/on done, in/into/on written prophecies virtue. Who because not/no may_detest that David in/into/on sundial taking_a_walk Bathsheba Uriah desired wife, which nevertheless from battle returning ire house/home advises, feet to_wash? Who immediately answered saying: Box of_God under skins, and I in/into/on at_home my I_will_rest? Which David to the_table own he_accepted and_he foods through which to_die should delivers. Holds therefore David figure his/her from/about where written it_is: In the_sun put tabernacle his_own Psal. 18.. Who Bathsheba to himself commands you_may_be_brought_up, that it_is the_law letters carnal to_the_people joined spiritual to_himself with_understanding to_unite. Bathsheba because well/cistern seven it_is_said, because through kinship law pouring-in specific thanks perfect us wisdom is_served. Urias indeed/however Jewish the_people means, who/which interprets light(n) my of_God: Jewish because the_people who/which from/about accepted law knowledge/skill is_exalted, as_if of_God light boasts. But to_this David wife took_away and_him joined_together, because by_hand strong/powerful Redeemer/farmer apparent/perceptible, while from/about himself spiritually the_law to_speak became_known, through this that next_to literally they_were_held, this from Jewish to_the_people foreign demonstrated, to_himself joined_together, because himself through her preached declared. Uriah nevertheless to house/home advises ire, and feet to_wash, because incarnate To_the_Jews commands, as to conscience let_them_return, and dirt/filth works weeping they_may_rub; as specially commands law understand, and after so_much hardness of_the_precepts/rules, fountain baptism finding, to water after work currant. But Urias, who/which the_box Master to_be under skins remembers, responds, because house/home his_own to_enter not/no can. That he_says: I commands of_God in/into/on sacrifices carnal I_see, and to_return to conscience through spiritual intelligence not/no I_seek. As_if because the_box of_God to_be under skins he_says, because commands(n) of_God not/no except to_be_exhibited ministry carnal/bodily sacrifice understands. This_one nevertheless to_return house/home being_unwilling David to the_table he_calls, because when/with Jews to conscience to_return they_may_despise, Christ/Messiah nevertheless spiritual_(things) preach saying: When/But_if you(pl)_would_believe Moses, you(pl)_would_believe perhaps and to_me, from/about me because he/that_one wrote Yohan. 5.. The_law because Jew holds, which his/her divinity speaks, to_whom to_believe disdains. From_where/who and Urias to Yoab when/with letters from to_whom to_be_killed should, is_sent, because Jew the_law carries, which convicting die. Since because commands law holding_back to_fill relies, exactly_that/himself carries judgement from_where/who may_be_condemned. What therefore through done this David more_wicked? What Uriah cleaner? But to mystery: what David holier? What Uriah infidelius? Because he/that_one through of_life guilt prophecies signs/seals innocence; and these through of_life innocence in/into/on prophecy expresses guilt. Virtue because sacred eloquence so completed tells, as to_come may_express: so in/into/on done thing approves, as in/into/on mystery may_contradict. So deeds condemns, as these_things mystically to_be_worn may_suggest.
