Introductory Notice to Novatian, a Roman Presbyter.

[5018] [Jer. v. 22. Compare sublime page with paganism.]

[5019] “Inventionis.” “Redemptionis” is a reasonable emendation.

[5020] Or probably, “Neither indeed is,” etc. [Vol. iii. p. 428.]

Chapter II. Argument.—God is Above All Things, Himself Containing All Things, Immense, Eternal, Transcending the Mind of Man; Inexplicable in Discourse, Loftier Than All Sublimity.

[5021] Viritior. [See Robert Hall on French Atheism.]

Chapter III. Argument.—That God is the Founder of All Things, Their Lord and Parent, is Proved from the Holy Scriptures.

[5022] Ps. cxlviii. 5.

[5023] Ps. ciii. 24.

[5024] Deut. iv. 39.

[5025] Ps. ciii. 32.

[5026] Isa. xl. 22, 12.

[5027] Isa. xlv. 22.

[5028] Isa. xlii. 8.

[5029] Isa. lxvi. 1. [No portable or pocket god.]

Chapter IV. Argument.—Moreover, He is Good, Always the Same, Immutable, One and Only, Infinite; And His Own Name Can Never Be Declared, and He is Incorruptible and Immortal.

[5035] Gen. i. 31.

[5036] In other words, God is always the same in essence, in personality, and in attributes.

[5037] Mal. iii. 6.

[5038] Ex. iii. 14. [The ineffable name of the Self-Existent.]
