The Seven Books Of Arnobius Against The Heathen by Arnobius

54 But you do not believe these things; yet those who witnessed their occurrenceà

But you do not believe these things; yet those who witnessed their occurrence, and who saw them done before their eyes -- the very best vouchers and the most trustworthy authorities -- both believed them themselves, and transmitted them to us who follow them, to be believed with no scanty measure of confidence. Who are these? you perhaps ask. Tribes, peoples, nations, and that incredulous human race; but if the matter were not plain, and, as the saying is, clearer than day itself, they would never grant their assent with so ready belief to events of such a kind. But shall we say that the men of that time were untrustworthy, false, stupid, and brutish to such a degree that they pretended to have seen what they never had seen, and that they put forth under false evidence, or alleged with childish asseveration things which never took place, and that when they were able to live in harmony and to maintain friendly relations with you, they wantonly incurred hatred, and were held in execration?
