Dialogue with Trypho 69.6 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 1:336–338

Πηγὴ ὕδατος ζῶντος παρὰ θεοῦ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ γνώσεως θεοῦ τῇ τῶν ἐθνῶν γῇ ἀνέβλυσεν οὗτος ὁ Χριστός, ὃς καὶ ἐν τῷ γένει ὑμῶν πέφανται, καὶ τοὺς ἐκ γενετῆς καὶ κατὰ τὴν σάρκα πηροὺς καὶ κωφοὺς καὶ χωλοὺς ἰάσατο, τὸν μὲν ἅλεσθαι, τὸν δὲ καὶ ἀκούειν, τὸν δὲ καὶ ὁρᾶν τῷ λόγῳ αὐτοῦ ποιήσας· καὶ νεκροὺς δὲ ἀναστήσας καὶ ζῆν ποιήσας, καὶ διὰ τῶν ἔργων ἐδυσώπει τοὺς τότε ὄντας ἀνθρώπους ἐπιγνῶναι αὐτόν.

English · Claude translation

“This Christ, a spring of living water from God, gushed forth in the wilderness of the knowledge of God, the land of the nations; he also appeared in your race and healed those who from birth and in the flesh were blind and deaf and lame, making one leap, another hear, and another see by his word; and raising the dead and making them live, he also by his works shamed the men of that time into recognizing him.
