Dialogue with Trypho 67.6 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 1:322

Κἀγὼ ἀπεκρινάμην· Ὡμολόγησά τε καὶ ὁμολογῶ· ἀλλʼ οὐχ ὡς δικαιούμενον αὐτὸν διὰ τούτων ὡμολόγησα ὑπομεμενηκέναι πάντα, ἀλλὰ τὴν οἰκονομίαν ἀπαρτίζοντα, ἣν ἤθελεν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν ὅλων ποιητὴς καὶ κύριος καὶ θεός. Καὶ γὰρ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν σταυρωθέντα ὁμολογῶ ὑπομεῖναι αὐτὸν καὶ τὸ ἄνθρωπον γενέσθαι καὶ τοσαῦτα παθεῖν ὅσα διέθεσαν αὐτὸν οἱ ἀπὸ τοῦ γένους ὑμῶν.

English · Claude translation

And I answered, “I admitted it and admit it; but I did not admit that he endured all these things as being justified by them, but as fulfilling the dispensation which his Father, the Maker and Lord and God of all, willed. For I admit also that he endured to die crucified, and to become man, and to suffer all that those of your race inflicted on him.
