[160] ἐπαυχήσει διαβῆναί ποτε τοσοῦτον; 31 ἀλλ’ ἐάσαντες τὰς ἐπὶ ταῖς ¹ φάτναις τὸ σύμφυτον ἡμῖν θρέμμα πιαινούσας, τὴν ἐπιθυμίαν, ἐξετάσωμεν τὴν λόγου μεταποιουμένην ἀκοήν· ἧς ὁ σύντονος καὶ τελειότατος δρόμος ἵσταται κατὰ ἀέρα τὸν περίγειον, ὅταν βία πνευμάτων καὶ κτύποι βροντῶν συρμὸν πολὺν καὶ χαλεπὸν πάταγον ἐξηχῶσιν.

Translations (1)

On the Life of the Wise Man made perfect by Instruction or, on the Unwritten Law, that is to say, on Abraham First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, Volume 2. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1854.) — 160 focus
