Chapter XX.—Common Principles.
Chapter XXI.—Freedom of the Will.
[682] [Comp. Homilies XI. 8, XIX. 15. But in the Recognitions this topic is more frequently treated. See chap. 26, and elsewhere.—R.]
Chapter XXIV.—God the Author of Good, Not of Evil.
[683] [Comp. Homily XIX. 12. The argument here is far more philosophical.—R.]
Chapter XXVI.—No Goodness Without Liberty.

Chapter XXVII.—The Visible Heaven: Why Made.
Chapter XXIX.—Corruptible and Temporary Things Made by the Incorruptible and Eternal.
Chapter XXX.—How the Pure in Heart See God.
Chapter XXXVII.—God Righteous as Well as Good.
Chapter XXXVIII.—God’s Justice Shown at the Day of Judgment.
[691] [Comp. Homilies XVII. 4, etc., XVIII. 1. The objection is of Gnostic origin.—R.]
Chapter XL.—Proved by the Success of the Wicked in This Life.
[694] [Comp. Homily XIX. 23.—R.]
Chapter XLII.—“Full of All Subtlety and All Mischief.”
[696] [The concluding portion of this discussion (chaps. 42–48) is peculiar alike in its argument and its colloquies.—R.]
Chapter XLIV.—Sight or Hearing?
[697] [Comp. book ii. 15 and Homily II. 26.—R.]
[698] Evidently parodied from Acts viii. 18-24. This incident is peculiar to the Recognitions.—R.]
