But truth, much more powerful than\r\nlimitless duration, can collect its proper germs, though they have\r\nfallen on foreign soil. For we shall find that very many of the dogmas\r\nthat are held by such sects as have not become utterly senseless, and\r\nare not cut out from the order of nature (by cutting off Christ, as the\r\nwomen of the fable dismembered the man),<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_921\" id=\"FNanchor_921\">[921]</a> though appearing unlike\r\none another, correspond in their origin and with the truth as a whole.\r\nFor they coincide in one, either as a part, or a species, or a genus.\r\nFor instance, though the highest note is different from the lowest\r\nnote, yet both compose one harmony. And in numbers an even number\r\ndiffers from an odd number; but both suit in arithmetic; as also is the\r\ncase with figure, the circle, and the triangle, and the square, and\r\nwhatever figures differ from one another. Also, in the whole universe,\r\nall the<span class=\"pagenum\" id=\"Page_390\">[390]</span> parts, though differing one from another, preserve their\r\nrelation to the whole. So, then, the barbarian and Hellenic philosophy\r\nhas torn off a fragment of eternal truth not from the mythology of\r\nDionysus, but from the theology of the ever-living Word. And He who\r\nbrings again together the separate fragments, and makes them one, will\r\nwithout peril, be assured, contemplate the perfect Word, the truth.\r\nTherefore it is written in Ecclesiastes: “And I added wisdom above all\r\nwho were before me in Jerusalem; and my heart saw many things; and\r\nbesides, I knew wisdom and knowledge, parables and understanding. And\r\nthis also is the choice of the spirit, because in abundance of wisdom\r\nis abundance of knowledge.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_922\" id=\"FNanchor_922\">[922]</a> He who is conversant with all kinds of\r\nwisdom, will be pre-eminently a gnostic. Now it is written, “Abundance\r\nof the knowledge of wisdom will give life to him who is of it.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_923\" id=\"FNanchor_923\">[923]</a>\r\nAnd again, what is said is confirmed more clearly by this saying, “All\r\nthings are in the sight of those who understand”—all things, both\r\nHellenic and barbarian; but the one or the other is not all. “They are\r\nright to those who wish to receive understanding. Choose instruction,\r\nand not silver, and knowledge above tested gold,” and prefer also\r\nsense to pure gold; “for wisdom is better than precious stones, and no\r\nprecious thing is worth it.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_924\" id=\"FNanchor_924\">[924]</a></p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE MISCELLANIES.","BOOK I.","CHAPTER XIII.
