Dialogue with Trypho 93.5 · Sophia Scriptura

Summary: Moses' signs point to Christ.

Greek text · Archambault 2:98

Ἔχοντες γὰρ ἀφορμὰς ἀπὸ τῶν γενομένων σημείων διὰ Μωσέως συνιέναι ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν, οὐ βούλεσθε, ἀλλὰ καὶ πρὸς τούτοις, ἡμᾶς ἀλογεῖν δύνασθαι ὑπολαμβάνοντες, συζητεῖτε ὅπερ ὑμῖν συμβαίνει, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἀπορεῖτε λόγων, ὅταν εὐτόνῳ τινὶ Χριστιανῷ συμβάλητε.

English · Claude translation

“For though you have starting points from the signs done by Moses to understand that this is he, you are not willing; and moreover, supposing that we can be put at a loss for reasons, you raise questions, which happens to you yourselves, and you are at a loss for words whenever you meet a vigorous Christian.
