¶1

XXXVIII.—To the Jews.

¶2

Evil always, and recalcitrant, with a stiff neck ye wish not that ye should be overcome; thus ye will be heirs.  Isaiah said that ye were of hardened heart.  Ye look upon the law which Moses in wrath dashed to pieces; and the same Lord gave to him a second law.  In that he placed his hope; but ye, half healed, reject it, and therefore ye shall not be worthy of the kingdom of heaven.
