Dialogue with Trypho 56.15 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 1:256–258

Εἰ οὖν καὶ ἄλλον τινὰ θεολογεῖν καὶ κυριολογεῖν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιόν φατε ὑμεῖς παρὰ τὸν πατέρα τῶν ὅλων καὶ τὸν Χριστὸν αὐτοῦ, ἀποκρίνασθέ μοι, ἐμοῦ ἀποδεῖξαι ὑμῖν ὑπισχνουμένου ἀπʼ αὐτῶν τῶν γραφῶν ὅτι οὐχ εἶς τῶν δύο ἀγγέλων τῶν κατελθόντων εἰς Σόδομά ἐστιν ὃν ἔφη ἡ γραφὴ κύριον, ἀλλʼ ἐκεῖνον τὸν σὺν αὐτοῖς καὶ θεὸν λεγόμενον ὀφθέντα τῷ Ἀβραάμ.

English · Claude translation

“If, then, you say that the Holy Spirit calls some other God and Lord besides the Father of all and his Christ, answer me; for I promise to prove to you from the Scriptures themselves that the one whom the Scripture called Lord is not one of the two angels who went down to Sodom, but the one who was with them and is called God, who appeared to Abraham.”
