Dialogue with Trypho 64.3 · Sophia Scriptura

Summary: Jews who are saved are saved through Christ.

Greek text · Archambault 1:302–304

Ὅτι οὖν καὶ οἱ σωζόμενοι ἀπὸ τοῦ γένους τοῦ ὑμετέρου διὰ τούτου σώζονται καὶ ἐν τῇ τούτου μερίδι εἰσί, τοῖς προλελεγμένοις ὑπʼ ἐμοῦ ἀπὸ τῶν γραφῶν εἰ προσεσχήκειτε, ἐνενοήκειτε ἄν ἤδη, κἀμὲ δηλονότι περὶ τούτου οὐκ ἂν ἠρωτήσατε. Πάλιν δὲ ἐρῶ τὰ προλελεγμένα μοι ἀπὸ τοῦ Δαυΐδ, καὶ ἀξιῶ ὑμᾶς πρὸς τὸ συνιέναι, μὴ πρὸς τὸ πονηρεύεσθαι καὶ ἀντιλέγειν μόνον ἑαυτοὺς ὀτρῦναι.

English · Claude translation

“That those of your race who are saved are saved through him and are in his portion, you would already have understood if you had paid attention to what I quoted before from the Scriptures, and clearly you would not have asked me about it. But I will repeat what I quoted before from David, and I ask you to prepare yourselves to understand, not only to act wickedly and contradict.
