One and one eye and the images are many different in definition and reality, and in His hand is prevention and giving. That is for God. Has He made the gods one god? Indeed, this is a wondrous thing, that is, the multiplicity in the eye of the one. We have not heard of this in our forefathers. They did not deny it nor reject it, but rather magnified it and were arrogant in it and marveled at how things could be a thing. And they were arrogant in saying such words from such a person, since they knew that he was one of them and he only saw what they saw. So where did he get this that he claimed?
