Book V - Snyder Bible

274
all things, he must do
6, for, being mortal, he shall not be able to
comprehend all at once the counsel of Elohim and to scan immensity
itself. But if, as we have said, he desires to learn all
things, let him seek after the True Prophet; and when he has
found Him, let him not treat with Him by questions and disputations
and arguments; but if He has given any response, or
pronounced any judgment, it cannot be doubted that this is
certain. And therefore, before all things, let the True Prophet
be sought, and His words be laid hold of. In respect to these,
this only should be discussed by every one, that he may satisfy
himself if they are truly His prophetic words; that is, if they
contain undoubted faith of things to come, if they mark out
definite times, if they preserve the order of things, if they do
not relate as last those things which are first, nor as first those
things which were done last, if they contain nothing subtle,
nothing composed by magic art to deceive, or if they have not
transferred to themselves things which were revealed to others,
and have mixed them with falsehoods. And when all these
things have been discussed by right judgment, it is established
that they are prophetic words, so they ought to be at once believed
concerning all things on which they have spoken and
answered.
Chapter LXI: Ignorance of the Philosophers
ereas
the philosophers have introduced certain subtle and difficult
words, so that not even the terms that they use in their
discourses can be known and understood by all, Yahweh has
shown that those who thought themselves word-framers are
altogether unskillful as respects the knowledge of the truth.
For the knowledge of things which is imparted by the True
Prophet Yahshua is simple, and plain, and brief; which those
6 he cannot do it by discussing them one by one
added by the translator/interpreter), the reading as is is in agreement with the understanding
of Yeshayahu (Isaiah) 28:9-10
