So then too God willed, you unbeliever, and made for Adam and his wife tunics of skin by nature, without animals, without any human skill and varied workmanship, as soon as he willed it, just as at the beginning, as soon as he willed it, heaven and all things came into being.

For those who wish … to live, salvation is quick and false belief easily refuted; but for those who will not accept the school of salvation, not even the whole age would suffice for discussion, since their hearing is always deaf, like a deaf asp that stops its ears “to the voice of the charmer and the drug compounded by the wise,” according to the divine word. But for the sons of truth, I think, the discussion is of no small use, even if it has not been set out at length.

I will come to your discussion of the resurrection from the first psalm. For when you deceive the ignorant, insinuating your opinion, you toiler in vain, and say that some of the simpler believers think the ungodly will not attain resurrection, and afterwards show the same simpler believers being questioned again by you about what kind of body the resurrection will be of, and how you will raise counter-objections yourself on behalf of those you call simpler … (for this too must be said plainly), [you are forced] to call good those you call simpler;

For even the outsider says, “Simple is the tale of truth.” And we are accustomed to call simple the guileless, whom the Saviour praises in many places, as in “Be innocent as doves” and “Let the children come to me; for of such is the kingdom of heaven,” that is, of the simplest.

so that it is plain to all that it is the same thing in its perfection, and has become no smaller a body except for the casting off of dirt and impurity; and certainly the craftsman will not, because it has cast off the dirt, be required by us to return it together with the dirt, but the garment itself, safe, sound, and very clean.

Notes and citation

Summary: The cleaned garment is the same, without its dirt.

So too the things that have flowed from us, even if † it is so according to your argument, will not be foolishly sought by us, nor would God bring them into our composition; but, like dirt that belonged to the garment itself yet was cast off it for the sake of neatness, he would leave them in a secondary place, while the Creator, by the goodness of his art, would bring back that complete garment, neither lacking nor superfluous; for all things are possible to him.

For from this the holy apostle showed our hope, saying, “How do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is empty, and your faith is vain; and we are found to be false witnesses of God, because we said that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise,” and so on.

And Solomon in Proverbs likewise, preparing all things of hope for the readiness there, urged, saying, “Prepare your works for the departure” (calling departure the release from here), “and make ready,” he says, “for the field,” extending the admonition to all alike, in country and in town, to the learned and to those who practise the mechanical crafts, for whom no work in the field is required;

Then afterwards, signifying the same hope of resurrection, he says, “And you will rebuild your house.” He did not say “you will build the house,” for it was built once in the forming in the womb, when mothers conceived each of us in our forming; the resurrection is from the earth or from the field, no longer being built but rebuilt, because of the demolition brought on it in the fall of burial;

For if the enjoyment and the inheritance of the kingdom of heaven belong to the soul alone, let the body share in whatever it wishes: let Gideon and his like live in luxury and not be ill-treated “in sheepskins and goatskins”; let John not toil in vain with his clothing of camel’s hair; let us not subdue the flesh in solitude, nor tame our bodies in chastity.

For at once the judgment would be found idle. For if the soul is found quite alone, when judged it might reply: “The cause of sin is not from me, but from that perishable and earthy body came sexual immorality, adultery, licentiousness; for since it departed from me, I have done none of these things”; and it would have an easy defence and would undo God’s judgment.

And even if God should bring the body by itself (for he can, as has been shown above by me through Ezekiel; even if the event took place in a parable, yet its form was fulfilled as an allegory of the truth then expressed in parable, how bone was joined to bone and joint to joint, while the bones were dry and there was not yet soul or spirit moving in them, and at once the bodies were joined together and made firm, according to the prophet’s word;

yet the body cannot be judged without the soul. For it too would reply, saying, “It was not I who sinned, but the soul.

For this reason, then, and for many other necessary reasons, God in his wisdom brings our dead bodies and souls to regeneration by his promise of love for mankind, so that the one who has toiled in holiness may receive from God every good recompense, and those who have done vain things may likewise be judged, body together with soul and soul together with body.
