477 IV. xxiv. 1. Primogenitum mortuorum, et principem vitæ Dei, eum qui
per extensionem manuum dissolvebat Amalech, et vivificabat hominem
de serpentis plaga per fidem, quæ erat in eum.——Justin Martyr
(_Tryph._ 90.) expresses the same idea more fully; and remarks as
confirmatory of the typical signification of the posture of Moses,
that it was altogether unusual as a posture of prayer, and indeed
adopted by him on no other occasion, nor by any one since his time.
478 Ibid.
479 IV. xx. 12. Sic autem et Moyses Æthiopissam accipiebat uxorem, quam
ipse Israelitidem fecit; præsignificans, quoniam oleaster inseritur
in olivam, et participans pinguedinis ejus erit. Quoniam enim is qui
secundum carnem natus est Christus, a populo quidem habebat inquiri
ut occideretur, liberari vero in Ægypto, id est, in Gentibus,
sanctificare eos qui ibi essent infantes, unde et Ecclesiam ibi
perfecit; (Ægyptus enim ab initio gentilis, quemadmodum et Æthiopia)
propter hoc διὰ τοῦ γάμου Μωüσέως ὁ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ νοητὸς γάμος
ἐδείκνυτο, καὶ διὰ τῆς Αἰθιοπικῆς νύμφης, ἡ ἐξ ἐθνῶν ἐκκλησία
ἐδηλοῦτο· ἣν οἱ καταλαλοῦντες, καὶ ἐνδιαβάλλοντες, καὶ διαμωκώμενοι,
οὐκ ἔσονται καθαροί. λεπρήσουσι γὰρ, καὰ ἐξαφορισθήσονται τῆς τῶν
δικαίων παρεμβολῆς.
480 IV. xxv. 2. Hoc et per alia quidem multa, jam vero et per Thamar
Judæ nurum typice ostenditur. Cum enim concepisset geminos, alter
eorum prior protulit manum suam: et cum obstetrix putaret eum
primogenitum esse, coccinum alligavit signum in manu ejus. Cum hoc
autem factum esset, et abstraxisset manum suam, prior exivit frater
ejus Phares; sic deinde secundus ille, in quo erat coccinum, Zara:
clare manifestante Scriptura eum quidem populum qui habet coccinum
signum, id est, eam fidem quæ est in præputio, præostensam quidem
primum in Patriarchis, post deinde subtractam, uti nasceretur frater
ejus; deinde sic eum, qui prior esset, secundo loco natum, qui est
cognitus per signum coccinum, quod erat in eo; quod est passio
Justi, ab initio præfigurata in Abel, et descripta a Prophetis,
perfecta vero in novissimis temporibus in Filio Dei.
