Chapter XIV.
That knowledge of the law is given by the guidance and
illumination of the Lord.
The
knowledge also of the
law itself they daily endeavour to gain not by diligence in reading,
but by the guidance and illumination of God as they say to Him:
“Show me Thy ways, O Lord, and teach me Thy paths:” and
“open Thou mine eyes: and I shall see the wondrous things of Thy
law:” and “teach me to do Thy will, for Thou art my
God;” and again: “Who teacheth man
knowledge.”
