Book III. THE ASCENT: FROM THE RIVER JORDAN TO THE MOUNT OF TRANSFIGURATION.

{hebrew}

In every passage of Scripture where thou findest the Majesty of God, thou also findest close by His Condescension (Humility). So it is written down in the Law [Deut. x.17, followed by verse 18], repeated in the Prophets [Is. lvii.15], and reiterated in the Hagiographa [Ps. lxviii.4, followed by verse 5].' - Megill 31 a.
