Dialogue with Trypho 135.6 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 2:288

Ἀλλʼ ὅνπερ τρόπον ἐκεῖ φησιν ὁ προφήτης· Καὶ νῦν σὺ οἶκος τοῦ Ἰακώβ, δεῦρο καὶ πορευθῶμεν ἐν φωτὶ κυρίου· ἀνῆκε γὰρ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ, τὸν οἶκον Ἰακώβ, ὅτι ἐπλήσθη ἡ χώρα αὐτῶν, ὡς τὸ ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς, μαντειῶν καὶ κληδονισμῶν· οὕτω καὶ ἐνθάδε δεῖ νοεῖν ἡμᾶς δύο σπέρματα Ἰούδα καὶ δύο γένη, ὡς δύο οἴκους Ἰακώβ, τὸν μὲν ἐξ αἵματος καὶ σαρκός, τὸν δὲ ἐκ πίστεως καὶ πνεύματος γεγεννημένον.

English · Claude translation

“But just as the prophet says there, ‘And now, house of Jacob, come and let us walk in the light of the Lord; for he has let go his people, the house of Jacob, because their land was filled, as at the beginning, with divinations and omens’; so here too we must understand two seeds of Judah and two races, like two houses of Jacob, the one born of blood and flesh, the other of faith and the Spirit.
