there is called the Angel, and who promised that God would give them to satiety, He who
is both God and the Angel, sent by the Father, is described as saying and doing these things.
For thus the Scripture says: ‘And the Lord said to Moses, Will the Lord’s hand not be suffi-
cient? thou shalt know now whether my word shall conceal thee or not.’682 And again, in
other words, it thus says: ‘But the Lord spake unto me, Thou shalt not go over this Jordan:
the Lord thy God, who goeth before thy face, He shall cut off the nations.’683
