IESVIT. [ A]
I know that some Catholickes expound this place, That Christ was painted out vnto the Galathians Meta∣phorically by preaching, which I doe not denie, but this doth not repugne with the other sence, that he was also ma∣terially painted as crucified, the which being more conforme to the natiue and proper signification of the words, is not to bee forsaken but vpon euident absurditie, especially, [ B] seeing it hath more connexion with the drift of the Apostles discourse, which is, to prooue the Galathians sencelesse in forsaking Christ crucified painted before their eyes; for to forsake Christ crucified, set forth by preaching, as the Sa∣uiour of the world, though it be impious, yet is not sence∣lesse, yea rather Saluation by the Crosse of Christ, did seeme follie vnto the Gentiles. But to haue Christ painted as cru∣cified before mens eyes, honouring him by Christian deuoti∣on, [ C] in regard of his crucifixion and death, and not to expect Saluation by him, is sottish and senceles. And of this mate∣riall painting of Christ, Athanasius expoundeth this place, whom Turrianus citeth: wherefore I may iustly say, that we haue more cleere and expresse Scripture, for the vse of Images, than haue Protestants for their vul∣gar Translations.
