{"author":null,"backreferences":[{"context_html":"<p>Wherefore if we read of any foreigner—that is, one neither\r\nborn of Israel nor received by that people into the canon of\r\nthe sacred books—having prophesied something about Christ,\r\nif it has come or shall come to our knowledge, we can refer\r\nto it over and above; not that this is necessary, even if\r\nwanting, but because it is not incongruous to believe that\r\neven in other nations there may have been men to whom this\r\nmystery was revealed, and who were also impelled to proclaim\r\nit, whether they were partakers of the same grace or had no\r\nexperience of it, but were taught by bad angels, who, as we\r\nknow, even confessed the present Christ, whom the Jews did\r\nnot acknowledge. Nor do I think the Jews themselves dare\r\ncontend that no one has belonged to God except the Israelites,\r\nsince the increase of Israel began on the rejection of his elder\r\nbrother. For in very deed there was no other people who\r\nwere specially called the people of God; but they cannot\r\ndeny that there have been certain men even of other nations\r\nwho belonged, not by earthly but heavenly fellowship, to the\r\ntrue Israelites, the citizens of the country that is above. Because,\r\nif they deny this, they can be most easily confuted by\r\nthe case of the holy and wonderful man Job, who was neither\r\na native nor a proselyte, that is, a stranger joining the people\r\nof Israel, but, being bred of the Idumean race, arose there\r\nand died there too, and who is so praised by the divine oracle,\r\nthat no man of his times is put on a level with him as regards\r\njustice and piety. And although we do not find his date in\r\nthe chronicles, yet from his book, which for its merit the\r\nIsraelites have received as of canonical authority, we gather\r\nthat he was in the third generation after Israel. And I\r\ndoubt not it was divinely provided, that from this one case\r\nwe might know that among other nations also there might be<span class=\"pagenum\"><a id=\"Page_280\">[Pg 280]</a></span>\r\nmen pertaining to the spiritual Jerusalem who have lived\r\naccording to God and have pleased Him. And it is not to\r\nbe supposed that this was granted to any one, unless the one\r\nMediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,<a id=\"FNanchor_589_589\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_589_589\">[589]</a> was\r\ndivinely revealed to him; who was pre-announced to the saints\r\nof old as yet to come in the flesh, even as He is announced\r\nto us as having come, that the selfsame faith through Him\r\nmay lead all to God who are predestinated to be the city of\r\nGod, the house of God, and the temple of God. But whatever\r\nprophecies concerning the grace of God through Christ\r\nJesus are quoted, they may be thought to have been forged\r\nby the Christians. So that there is nothing of more weight\r\nfor confuting all sorts of aliens, if they contend about this\r\nmatter, and for supporting our friends, if they are truly wise,\r\nthan to quote those divine predictions about Christ which\r\nare written in the books of the Jews, who have been torn from\r\ntheir native abode and dispersed over the whole world in\r\norder to bear this testimony, so that the Church of Christ has\r\neverywhere increased.</p>","headings":["THE CITY OF GOD.","BOOK EIGHTEENTH.","ARGUMENT."],"marker_anchor":null,"paragraph_id":"pg45305-paragraph-467"}],"canonical_references":[],"date_end":null,"date_start":null,"deduplication_fingerprint":"b83a5b8eb8dc511c9008c314df277a9dd824d6aab023ccb97f6714089221802b","edition_title":"The City of God, Volume II","edition_translators":["Marcus Dods","George Wilson (Books XVII-XVIII)"],"edition_year":1871,"explicit_reference_candidates":[{"book":"1TI","chapter":2,"kind":"unreviewed","source_notation":"1 Tim. ii. 5","verse":5,"verse_end":5}],"headings":[],"id":"pg45305-Footnote_589_589","license_url":"https://www.gutenberg.org/policy/license.html","public_import_allowed":false,"record_kind":"original-editor-translator-note","review_required":["work and recension attribution","original-work chronology","Bible reference numbering and citation kind","English edition rights and attribution"],"review_status":"needs_review","rights_evidence":"Provider catalog reports public domain in the USA.
