[58] 12 ἔστι δὲ καὶ ἑτέρωθι τὸ γράμμα τοῦτο ἐστηλιτευμένον· „ἡνίκα διεμέριζεν ὁ ὕψιστος ἔθνη, ὡς διέσπειρεν υἱοὺς
Ἀδάμ“ (Deut. 32,8), τοὺς γηΐνους ἅπαντας τρόπους οὐράνιον οὐδὲν ἀγαθὸν ἐσπουδακότας ἰδεῖν ἤλασεν, ἀοίκους καὶ ἀπόλιδας καὶ σποράδας ὄντως ἐργασάμενος. οὐδενὶ γὰρ τῶν φαύλων οὐκ οἶκος, οὐ πόλις, οὐκ ¹ ἄλλο τῶν εἰς κοινωνίαν οὐδὲν διασῴζεται, ἀλλ’ ἀνίδρυτος ὢν σπείρεται, πάντῃ φορούμενος καὶ μετανιστάμενος ἀεὶ καὶ μηδαμόθι στηριχθῆναι δυνάμενος.

There is also in another place the following sentence deeply engraven: "When the Most High came down to scatter the nations, as he dispersed the sons of Adam," ¹ he drove out all earthly dispositions, which had no desire to see any good thing from heaven; depriving them of house and city, and rendering them truly wanderers on the face of the earth. For no house, nor city, nor anything else which relates to society and participation, is preserved for any one of the wicked; but they are deprived of all settled habitation, and dispersed abroad, being moved in every direction, and living a life of continued emigration, and not being able to become settled any where.
