But we are perfwaded that Death is not a Retribution of Punifhment. becaufe eventhe Saints have undergone it; nay, even the Lord of the Saints, Jefus Chrift, the Life of them that believe, and the Refurrecti- on of the Dead. Upon this account therefore, according to the ancient Practice. for thofe who live in the great Ciry, after the Combats he brings a Diffolution for a while, that when he. raifes

up every one, he may either

reject him, or crown him.

For He that made the Body

of Adam out of the Earth, will raife up the Bodies of the reft, and that of the firft Man after their Diflolution, to pay what is owing to the we mean the Continuance in Being thro’ all Ages. He therefore. who brings’ on the Diflolution, wili himfelf ° procure the. Refurrection.

For it is not reafonable that he who has been bury’d with Chrift, and is rifen a gain with Him fhould ap- pear dejected at his very Refurrections For Man is not Lord of our Saviour’s Confticution, fince one is the Mafter, and the other the Servant.

But lec not your Fafts be with the Hypocrites; for they faft on the fecond and fifth Days of the Weck. But do you either faft the entire five Days, or on the fousth Day of the Weck, and on the Day of the Pre- paration, becaufe on the Fourth Day the Condemna- tion went out againft the Lord, Fudas then promifing to betray Him for Money: And you mutt faft on the Day of the Preparation, be- caufe on that Day the Lord fuffer'd the Death of the Crofs, under Pontius Pilate.

But keep | ‘the Sabbath, and the Lord’s Day Feftival ; be- caufe the former is the Me-

‘morial of the Creation, and

the Jatter of the Refurreci- on. But there is one only Sabbath to be obferv’d by you inthe whole Year, which is that of our Lord’s Bu. rial, on which Men ought to keep a Faft, but not a Feftival. For inafmuch as the Creator was then under the Earth, the Sorrow for Him is more forcible than— the Joy for the Creation :

of you exalt himlelf again «+ pie his Brother, though he be 389.

a Prophet, or though he be a Worker. of Miracles: For ifit happens thac there be no longer an Unbeliever, allthe Power of Signs will thence- forwards be {upeifluous: For to be pious is from any one’s good Dilpofition; but to work Wonders, is from the Power of Him that works them by us; the firft of which re(pects our felves, but the fecond refpeets God that works them, for the Reafons which we have. al- ready mention’d. Wherefore neither let a King defpife his Officers that are under him, noc the Rulers thofe who

are f{ubject. For where there are none to be ruled over, Rulers are fuperfluous ; and where there are no Officers, the Kirgdom will nor ftand. Moreover, let not a Bifhop be exalted again{t his Dea- cons and Presbyters, nor the Presbyters againft the People: For the Subfiftance of the Congregation depends on each other ; for the Bi- fhops and the Presbyters are the Priefts with relation to the People ; and the Laity are the Laity with relation tothe Clergy. Andto bea Chriftian is in our own Pow- er, but, to be an Apoftle, ora a Bifhop, or in any other fuch Office, is not in our ewn Power, but at the Dil pofal of God, who beftows the Gifts And thus much concerning thofe who are yvouehfafed Gifts and Dig- nities.

Ile

Baalam the Son of Beor, the ‘a x¥,

Prophet, did prophetie, tho’ he was himfelf wicked; as alfo did Caiashas, the nam’d High-Prieft. Nay, the

Devil foretels many things, and the Dxmons about him; and yet for all that there is not a Spark of Piety in them;

for they are oppre({s’d with

Ignorance, by reafon of their voluntary Wickednefs, It’s manifeft therefore that the Ungodly, although they pro- phefie, do not by their Pro- phecying cover their own Impiery ; nor will thofe who caft out Demons be fanéti- fied by the Demons being made fubje@ to them; for they only mock one ano- ther, as they do who play childifh Tricks for Mirth, and defiroy thofe who give heed-to them; for ncither ig a wicked King any longera King, but a Tyrant, nor is a Bifhop opprelgd with Tgnoe
