To Florus 1.3
I had, however, passed over some scriptural testimonies from which they suppose a case can be made against us. I had promised to explain them, to show that the ambiguous words of the Law that our enemies commonly use cannot count against a clearly established truth. They must be understood in accordance with what the clearest authorities of Holy Scripture and unanswerable reasoning establish. Anyone who thinks the divine Law can authorize something that justice cannot vindicate thereby reveals himself to be an ignorant and irreverent interpreter of that Law.
Latin
Testimonia tamen Scripturarum, quibus contra nos agi aliquid posse existimant, nonnulla praeterieram, quae me explanatum ire pollicitus eram, ut docerem ambigua quaeque Legis verba, quae ab inimicis nostris assumi solent, nec veritati praeiudicare perspicuae, et secundum hoc esse intellegenda, quod absolutissimis Scripturae sanctae auctoritatibus et insuperabili ratione firmatur. Siquidem hoc ipso, quam sit divinae Legis imperitus interpres et profanus apparet, quisquis putat eius sanctione defendi, quod iustitia non potest vindicari.
