As in the passage of Moses: Tentat enim vos Deus, utrum diligatis eum.205
Ecce praedixi vobis: vos ergo videte.206
843. Here is not the country of truth. She wanders unknown amongst men. God
has covered her with a veil, which leaves her unrecognised by those who do
not hear her voice. Room is opened for blasphemy, even against the truths
that are at least very likely. If the truths of the Gospel are published,
the contrary is published too, and the questions are obscured, so that the
people cannot distinguish. And they ask, "What have you to make you believed
rather than others? What sign do you give? You have only words, and so have
we. If you had miracles, good and well." That doctrine ought to be supported
by miracles is a truth, which they misuse in order to revile doctrine. And
if miracles happen, it is said that miracles are not enough without
doctrine; and this is another truth, which they misuse in order to revile
miracles.
Jesus Christ cured the man born blind and performed a number of miracles on
the Sabbath day. In this way He blinded the Pharisees, who said that
miracles must be judged by doctrine.
"We have Moses: but, as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is." It
is wonderful that you know not whence He is, and yet He does such miracles.
Jesus Christ spoke neither against God, nor against Moses.
