Against Julian 4.16.82
Why did Adam and his wife hide when they heard God walking in paradise, when those loincloths could have been enough if they had been ashamed of their naked sexual organs? (Genesis 3:7–10)
Latin
Cur audita voce Dei deambulantis in paradiso absconderunt se Adam et mulier eius, cum perizomata illa sufficere potuissent [n133] , si de genitalium nuditate erubuissent?
