10.  Take further a manifest proof of the resurrection of the dead, witnessed month by month in the sky and its luminaries Clem. Rom. Epist. ad Cor. xxiv:  “Day and night shew unto us the resurrection.  The night falleth asleep, and day ariseth; the day departeth, and night cometh on.”.  The body of the moon vanishes completely, so that no part of it is any more seen, yet it fills again, and is restored to its former state Tertull. de Resurr. Carnis, xii.:  “Readorned also are the mirrors of the moon, which her monthly course had worn away.”…“The whole of this revolving order of things bears witness to the resurrection of the dead.”; and for the perfect demonstration of the matter, the moon at certain revolutions of years suffering eclipse and becoming manifestly changed into blood, yet recovers its luminous body:  God having provided this, that thou also, the man who art formed of blood, mightest not refuse credence to the resurrection of the dead, but mightest believe concerning thyself also what thou seest in respect of the moon.  These therefore use thou as arguments against the Greeks; for with them who receive not what is written fight thou with unwritten weapons, by reasonings only and demonstrations; for these men know not who Moses is, nor Esaias, nor the Gospels, nor Paul.
