VI. Neither Is There Straitness with God, nor Anything That Is Not Absolutely Perfect.—From Manuscript of the Writings of Justin · XXXV. If the corpse of Elisha raised a dead man, how much more shall God, when He has quickened men's dead bodies, bring them up for judgment?

Christ,4879 who was called the Son of God before the ages, was manifested in the fulness of time, in order that He might cleanse us through His blood, who were under the power of sin, presenting us as pure sons to His Father, if we yield ourselves obediently to the chastisement of the Spirit. And in the end of time He shall come to do away with all evil, and to reconcile all things, in order that there may be an end of all impurities.

"From the same collection at Turin. The passage seems to be of cognate matter with the treatise De Resurrec. Pfaff referred it either to the dialexeis diaphoroi or to the epideixis apostolikou kerugmatos."—Harvey.
