Explanatio Apocalypsis (710 - 716) Bede |
| Quotation |
Femore enim posteritas seminis designatur.
Vnde et Abraham, ne posteritas eius alienigenis misceretur, inter se seruumque suum tertium
testimonium femur adhibuit, de quo apostolus tamquam mortuo fratri semen suscitans ait: In Christo
enim Iesu per euangelium ego uos genui. |
| Translation |
For by the thigh is designated the posterity of seed. Therefore Abraham also, in order that his posterity might not be mixed with Aliens, made use of his thigh for a third testimony between himself and his servant. And of this also the Apostle, as it were raising up seed to a brother who has died, says, 'In Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the Gospel'. (Trans. E. Marshall, The Explanation of the Apocalypse (Oxford and London: James Parker and Co., 1878, pp. 132-3) |
